+
+Note that the selection of a concrete Pinentry program determines only
+@emph{how} GnuPG queries for passphrases and not @emph{how often}.
+For the latter question see @ref{Caching Passphrases}.
+
+@cindex pinentry, emacs as
+With some configuration Emacs can also play the role of a Pinentry.
+The most natural choice, available with GnuPG 2.1.5 and later, is to
+use Emacs itself as Pinentry for requests that are triggered by Emacs.
+For example, if you open a file whose name ends with @file{.gpg} using
+automatic decryption, you most likely also want to enter the
+passphrase for that request in Emacs.
+
+@cindex loopback pinentry
+This so called @dfn{loopback Pinentry} has the added benefit that it
+works also when you use Emacs remotely or from a text-only terminal.
+To enable it:
+
+@enumerate
+@item
+@vindex allow-loopback-pinentry
+Ensure that option @code{allow-loopback-pinentry} is configured for
+@command{gpg-agent}, which should be the default.  @xref{Agent
+Options, , Option Summary, gnupg, Using the GNU Privacy Guard}.
+
+@item
+@vindex epg-pinentry-mode
+Customize variable @code{epg-pinentry-mode} to @code{loopback} in
+Emacs.
+@end enumerate
+
+There are other options available to use Emacs as Pinentry, you might
+come across a Pinentry called @command{pinentry-emacs} or
+@command{gpg-agent} option @code{allow-emacs-pinentry}.  However,
+these are considered insecure or semi-obsolete and might not be
+supported by your operating system or distribution.  For example,
+Debian GNU/Linux supports only the loopback Pinentry described above.
+
+@ignore
+In case somebody requests these:
+
+Use Emacs for all GnuPG requests:
+
+Make @command{pinentry-emacs} the default Pinentry by means of your
+operating system.  Install package @file{pinentry.el} from GNU ELPA
+and execute @kbd{M-x pinentry-start} to start the Emacs Pinentry
+service.  @emph{All} GnuPG passphrase requests should then result in a
+minibuffer prompt in the running Emacs.  If Emacs or the Emacs
+Pinentry service are not running, passphrase requests fail.
+
+Use Emacs for all GnuPG requests with other Pinentry as fallback:
+
+Ensure the other Pinentry supports Emacs; @command{pinentry-curses}
+does, for example.  Configure @command{gpg-agent} option
+@code{allow-emacs-pinentry}.  Set environment variable
+@code{INSIDE_EMACS} for the calling process.  Install package
+@file{pinentry.el}.  Now if Emacs is running and @kbd{M-x
+pinentry-start} has been executed, all GnuPG passphrase requests
+should result in a minibuffer prompt in the running Emacs.  If Emacs
+or the Emacs Pinentry service are not running, GnuPG uses the other
+Pinentry instead.

 Typing passphrases is a troublesome task if you frequently open and
 close the same file.  GnuPG and EasyPG Assistant provide mechanisms to
 remember your passphrases for a limited time.  Using these, you only
-need to re-enter the passphrase occasionally.
-However, the configuration is a bit
-confusing since it depends on your GnuPG installation@xref{GnuPG

-and whether or not you want to use gpg-agent.  Here are some

+configuration is a bit confusing since it depends on your GnuPG
+installation (@pxref{GnuPG version compatibility}), encryption method
+(symmetric or public key), and whether or not you want to use
+GnuPG Agent.  As an additional constraint, use of the GnuPG Agent is
+mandatory for GnuPG 2.0 and later.  Here are some questions:
