If you want something that will behave the same in Gnome or KDE, use
keychain and install pinentry with both pinentry-gtk and pinentry-qt.
Take a look at the man page for keychain for instructions on setting it
up, you just add a line to your .bashrc file like:

eval `keychain -q --eval id_dsa`


It can also handle a gpg-agent, I don't using it though because the
default timeout of gpg-agent is incredibly short and I don't actually
use gpg on the command line much other than for signing RPMs, and RPM
has its own set of commands it uses for that.
