choose `(1) RSA and RSA (default)` as the kind of key and 4096 as the key size. A key without expiry date is convenient (if a bit dangerous if you are the paranoid kind). Give the name and e-mail as you would like them to appear in the key. You may choose a comment (like `work` or `private`) or leave it empty. Make sure you use a **good passphrase** (just make it long as in 20 characters or more, e.g. a few words you can remember).

This will generate a new key for you which is identified by an 16 digit key ID (something like `0123456789ABCDEF` if you chose the configuration recommended above). Use this key ID below where it says <KEY-ID>.
