[snowcrash+bugbash]

i wasn't even close! but, this works:

-----------------------------------------
#!/usr/local/bin/bash
$GPG="sudo -u gpguser /usr/local/bin/gpg
$NAME="revoke.txt"
$ADDR="me@mydomain.com"

VAR=$(expect -c "
        spawn $GPG --output $NAME --gen-revoke $ADDR
        set timeout -1
        stty -echo
        expect \"Create a revocation certificate for this key? (y/N) \"
        send   \"y\n\"
        expect \"Your decision? \"
        send   \"0\n\"
        expect \"\> \"
        send   \"\n\"
        expect \"Is this okay? (y/N) \"
        send   \"y\n\"
        expect \"Enter passphrase: \"
        send   \"$PASS\r\"
        expect exp_continue
")
echo "$VAR"
