NAME

gpgsigs - annotate list of GnuPG keys with already done signatures

SYNOPSIS

gpgsigs [options] keyid[,keyid[,...]] keytxt [outfile]

DESCRIPTION

gpgsigs was written to assist the user in signing keys during a keysigning party. It takes as input a file containing keys in "gpg --list-keys" format and prepends every line with a tag indicating if the user has already signed that uid. When the file contains "ALGO Checksum:" lines and placeholders ("__ __"), the checksum is inserted. ALGO can be set to the following algorithms: MD5 SHA1 SHA256 or RIPEMD160.

OPTIONS

-r: Call gpg --recv-keys before creating the output.
-f charset: Convert keytxt from charset. The default is ISO-8859-1.
-t charset: Convert UIDs to charset. The default is derived from LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE, and LANG, and if all these are unset, the default is ISO-8859-1.
--refresh: Refresh the UID lists per key from gpg. Useful when UIDs were added or revoked since the input text was generated.
--latex: Generate LaTeX output, including photo IDs. Implies --refresh. Note: This writes jpg files to the current directory.
keyid: Use this keyid (8 or 16 bytes, or full fingerprint) for annotation. Multiple keyids can be separated by a comma (,).
keytxt: Read input from keytxt.
outfile: Write output to outfile. Default is stdout.

ENVIRONMENT

HOME: The default home directory.
GNUPGBIN: The gpg binary. Default: "gpg".
GNUPGHOME: The default working directory for gpg. Default: "$HOME/.gnupg".

EXAMPLES

The following key signing parties are using gpgsigs:

BUGS

GnuPG is known to change its output format quite often. This version has been tested with gpg 1.4.18 and gpg 2.0.26. YMMV.
