Windows/Mac gpg help requested....
Could someone with a Windows box and/or an OSX box (and gpg) try the
snapshot of the GPG plugin and make sure it properly masks the password
when it asks? I tried Solaris and Linux and they worked ok, but I don't
have access to a Windows or Mac box.
If it works OK, I'll call a release for it as it fixes both reported
issues:
* [MGPG-1] - Prompt for pass phrase if it is not supplied
* [MGPG-2] - Allow the selection of a particular signature
Thanks!

The alpha-3 version. The pom had been updated to 1.0-SNAPSHOT before I
realized it. I did change the config params and properties and such so
it's not quite "stable" enough yet for a 1.0.

That's a side effect of how it works. Not much I can do about it.
Basically, a high priority background thread is started that just sits in
a loop sending a backspace + "*" to the screen. Thus, that star is just
the background thread doing it's work. JDK 1.6 has methods that would
allow it to work properly, but I don't think we want to require that any
time soon.
Thanks for testing it.

They both work fine on WindowsXP + Cygwin's gpg. One odd thing
though, when it prompts for the pass phrase, there is already one '*'
displayed:
[INFO] [gpg:sign {execution: sign-artifacts}]
GPG Passphrase:*

What version? (Both 1.0-SNAPSHOT and 1.0-alpha-3-SNAPSHOT were
touched about the same time yesterday.)
And thanks for doing this. :)

I will give it a whirl on Tuesday.

I tried 1.0-alpha-3-SNAPSHOT and it prompts me for a password. This test
was done using Windows XP and the Win32 binary from gnupg.org.
I also see one '*' already there, like already Wendy reported.
