NAME
       GnuPG - The GNU Privacy Guard suite of programs

DESCRIPTION
       GnuPG  is a set of programs for public key encryption and digital sig-
       natures.	 The program most users will want to use is the OpenPGP	 com-
       mand  line  tool,  named	 gpg.  gpgv is a stripped down version of gpg
       with no encryption  functionality,  used	 only  to  verify  signatures
       against	a  trusted  keyring.  There is also a tool called gpgsplit to
       split OpenPGP messages or keyrings into their component packets.	 This
       is mainly useful for seeing how OpenPGP messages are put together.
