Using my GPG key for SSH?

I have an existing GPG key that I use with e-mail and such, and I need to create an SSH key. Can I use the former for the latter? Is there some kind of "import" feature?

Unfortunately, I think they use different formats. I tried to find a way for this as well, but couldn't find anything. If you find a way, post back.

Hmm, thanks. I assume that'll work on openssh as well?
