NAME
     openpgp-tool  -  utility for accessing visible data OpenPGP smart cards and
     compatible tokens

SYNOPSIS
     openpgp-tool [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION
     The openpgp-tool utility is used for accessing data from the  OpenPGP  v1.1
     and  v2.0 smart cards and compatible tokens like e.g. GPF CryptoStick v1.x,
     which might not be present in PKCS#15 objects but available in custom files
     on the card. The data can be printed on screen or used  by  other	programs
     via environment variables.

OPTIONS
     --card-info, -C
	 Show card information.

     --del-key arg
	 Delete key indicated by arg.  arg can be 1, 2, 3, or all.

     --do arg, -d arg
	 Dump private data object (DO) indicated by arg.  arg can be in the form
	 x, 10x, or 010x to access DO 010x, where x is 1, 2, 3, or 4.

     --erase, -E
	 Erase (i.e. reset) the card.

     --exec prog, -x prog
	 Execute the given program with data in environment variables.

     --gen-key arg, -G arg
	 Generate key with the ID given as arg.  arg can be one of 1, 2, or 3.

     --help, -h
	 Print help message on screen.

     --key-info, -K
	 Show information of keys on the card.

     --key-type keytype, -t keytype
	 Specify  the type of the key to be generated. Supported values for key-
	 type are rsa for RSA with 2048 bits,  rsaLENGTH  for  RSA  with  a  bit
	 length of LENGTH. If not given, it defaults to rsa2048.

     --pin pin
	 This  option  can be used to specify the PIN value on the command line.
	 If the value is set to env:VARIABLE, the value of the	specified  envi-
	 ronment  variable is used. By default, the code is prompted on the com-
	 mand line if needed.

	 Note that on most operation systems, any user can display  the  command
	 line of any process on the system using utilities such as ps(1). There-
	 fore,	you  should prefer passing the codes via an environment variable
	 on an unsecured system.

     --pretty
	 Print values in pretty format.

     --raw
	 Print values in raw format, as they are stored on the card.

     --reader arg, -r arg
	 Number of the reader to use.  By  default,  the  first  reader  with  a
	 present card is used. If arg is an ATR, the reader with a matching card
	 will be chosen.

     --user-info, -U
	 Show card holder information.

     --verify pintype
	 Verify PIN (CHV1, CHV2 or CHV3).

     --version, -V
	 Print the version of the utility and exit.

     --verbose, -v
	 Verbose operation. Use several times to enable debug output.

     --wait, -w
	 Wait for a card to be inserted.
