=default.check
tla-gpg-check gpg_command="gpg --verify-files -"
That's, well, the default.
address@hidden (and other check rules)
~/.arch-params/bin/my-gpg-check jblack

IIRC the point of this script is shutting down verbosity, but still
having it handy for diagnostic if something went wrong.
It's quite possible that this effect could have been achieved by passing
the appropriate options to gpg, but at the time I was completely scared
by this software. Toooooo many options.
In a nutshell this setup provides:
* One keyring per archive.
* No needless verbosity.
* Useful diagnostic output in case of failure.
* Relatively easy addition of new archives.
