Note: When verifying a cleartext signature, @command{gpg} verifies

only what makes up the cleartext signed data and not any extra data

the dash marker line. The option @code{--output} may be used to write

out the actual signed data; but there are other pitfalls with this

format as well. It is suggested to avoid cleartext signatures in
|

|
favor of detached signatures.
