Most simple method I've come up with was to copy from:
   dd if=/dev/urandom count=1 2> /dev/null|  tr -dc
"[:alnum:][:punct:]" | cut -c-20
into a gpg file behind a passphrase of ~30 chars of jabberwocky-like gibberish.

The weakest part would be a keylogger or an attack against the buffer
for copy/paste, but then I'd be in trouble anyway.
