GNUPG(7)		      GNU Privacy Guard 2.6			GNUPG(7)

NAME
     GnuPG - The GNU Privacy Guard suite of programs

DESCRIPTION
     GnuPG  is	a  set	of programs for public key encryption and digital signa-
     tures.  The program most users will want to use is the OpenPGP command 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.
     gpgsm  is	the  X.509/CMS	(for  S/MIME) counterpart of gpg. gpg-agent is a
     passphrase and private key daemon which may also emulate the ssh-agent.

SEE ALSO
     gpg(1), gpgv(1), gpgsm(1), gpg-agent(1), dirmngr(8), scdaemon(1)

     The full documentation for this tool is maintained as a Texinfo manual.  If
     GnuPG and the info program are properly installed at your site, the command

       info gnupg

     should give you access to the complete manual including  a  menu  structure
     and an index.
