|
|
signatures. The program most users will want to use is the OpenPGP
|
|
|
|
command line tool, named \fBgpg\fP. \fBgpgv\fP is a stripped down
|
|
|
|
version of \fBgpg\fP with no encryption functionality, used only to
|
|
|
|
verify signatures against a trusted keyring. There is also a tool
|
|
|
|
called \fBgpgsplit\fP to split OpenPGP messages or keyrings into their
|
|
|
|
component packets. This is mainly useful for seeing how OpenPGP
|
|
|
|
messages are put together.
