Feature Request - Use Existing Keys

[funnylookinhat]

It'd be great if I could just use the PGP key that I already have generated rather than having to create a new one.

If you find the felony.json configuration file, you can manually add your existing PGP key. It would be excellent if someone made a PR adding this to the GUI.

Considering most people trying this out right now already know what PGP is, how it works and have their own keys, perhaps this should be in the next release? I pretty much closed the app when I realised I couldn't use an existing key.

I'd personally go for a listing from gpg --list-secret as a basis of selecting an existing key. Might look into it if I find some time to code the coming weeks . .

Much needed feature. Tried out the software and it works fine on Mac El Capitan

I made a pass at it in a different way -- by just asking the user to copy paste a private key and adding it in much the same way the generation happens.

I can't actually test the code though since I'm suffering from unrelated issues (I get the blank screen others have already reported and have another breaking issue for which I'll file a bug report later) and I really need to run now, but if you like the approach I'll come back, polish it and submit a PR.

Any word on this? It would be nice to be able to use my actual private key instead of a new one for every pc. :)
