What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Try to decrypt a file (e.g. gpg -d secret.gpg)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I should have been asked for my password, but I get the following error:
gpg: cannot open `/dev/tty': No such device or address

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I'm using version 0.599 on Ubuntu 7.10 (gutsy)

Right now if a command requires input, you can prefix it with "term" to run it in a
terminal.  For example, "term gpg -d secret.gpg" should do what you want.  See:

I admit this isn't ideal and I'm trying to figure out better ways of handling it.

Interaction with GPG seems to work as expected in current SVN:

Committed r579
	M	hotwire/builtins/sys_builtin.py
r579 = f607e472a2e4065855f4bce6428c1d7a6c123727 (git-svn)
