Where are secret keys? How to back up them?
GPGTools for Mac seems to me a very promising project and I hope it will become the tool of choice for mail and file encryption on the Mac. A few things are not very clear to me, e.g. where are the secret keys stored? If I need to remove them where do I find them? And what about a backup copy of these same keys? Do I have to export them in ASCII or is there some other method?

The easiest method is to export/remove it via GPG Keychain Acces.
The full keyring is saved at ~/.gnupg
