<title>Create a new PGP key</title>
- <p>Short introductory text...</p>
+ <p>A <em>PGP key</em> will allow to encrypt your email and files. Here is how
+ to create a new key:</p>
<steps>
- <item><p>First step...</p></item>
- <item><p>Second step...</p></item>
- <item><p>Third step...</p></item>
+ <item><p>Click <guiseq><gui>File</gui><gui>New</gui></guiseq>.</p></item>
+ <item><p>Select <em>PGP Key</em> from the list of options.</p></item>
+ <item><p>Click <gui>Continue</gui>.</p></item>
+ <item><p>Enter your full given name and your email address. You can also
+ add a comment, such as whether the key is a personal key or a key for work,
+ your date of birth, or the date you created the key.</p></item>
+ <item><p>Click <gui>Create</gui>.</p></item>
+ <item><p>Enter a password, then confirm the password and click
+ <gui>Create</gui>.</p></item>
</steps>
+
+ <p><app>Passwords and Keys</app> will take some time to generate your key.
+ While your key is being created, move your mouse around and press some keys
+ on your keyboard. This will help <app>Passwords and Keys</app> to create
+ a truly random key.</p>
+
+ <note><p>Adding a comment to a <em>PGP Key</em> is entirely optional, and
+ many people prefer to not use comments when creating keys.</p></note>
