Description
As I'm starting to use Keybase for more and more of my crypto needs, I would like to be able to communicate to people who don't have Keybase accounts. Can we get some command line, or web options for me to paste in someone else's public key, and encrypt with that as a target?
edit: at the moment, I'm needing to export my private key, and compile / install gpg in order to talk to someone, and it'd be great to stay inside the keybase ecosystem.
Thanks!
David
