NAME
     sigtool - signature and database management tool

SYNOPSIS
     sigtool [options]

DESCRIPTION
     sigtool  can be used to generate MD5 checksums, convert data into hexadeci-
     mal format, list virus signatures and  build/unpack/test/verify  CVD  data-
     bases and update scripts.

OPTIONS
     -h, --help
	    Output help information and exit.

     -V, --version
	    Print version number and exit.

     --quiet
	    Be quiet - output only error messages.

     --stdout
	    Write all messages to stdout.

     --hex-dump
	    Read data from stdin and write hex string to stdout.

     --md5 [FILES]
	    Generate MD5 checksum from stdin or MD5 sigs for FILES.

     --sha1 [FILES]
	    Generate SHA1 checksum from stdin or SHA1 sigs for FILES.

     --sha256 [FILES]
	    Generate SHA256 checksum from stdin or SHA256 sigs for FILES.

     --mdb [FILES]
	    Generate .mdb signatures for FILES.

     --html-normalise=FILE
	    Create  normalised	HTML  files  comment.html,  nocomment.html,  and
	    script.html in current working directory.

     --utf16-decode=FILE
	    Decode UTF16 encoded data.

     --vba=FILE
	    Extract VBA/Word6 macros from given MS Office document.

     --vba-hex=FILE
	    Extract Word6 macros from given MS Office document and  display  the
	    corresponding hex values.

     -i, --info
	    Print a CVD information and verify MD5 and a digital signature.

     --build=FILE, -b FILE
	    Build  a  CVD  file. -s, --server is required for signed virus data-
	    bases(.cvd), or, --unsigned for unsigned(.cud).

     --max-bad-sigs=NUMBER
	    Maximum number of mismatched signatures when  building  a  CVD.  De-
	    fault: 3000

     --flevel
	    Specify a custom flevel. Default: 77

     --cvd-version
	    Specify  the  version number to use for the build. Default is to use
	    the value+1 from the current CVD in --datadir.  If	no  datafile  is
	    found  the default behaviour is to prompt for a version number, this
	    switch will prevent the prompt.  NOTE: If a  CVD  is  found  in  the
	    --datadir its version+1 is used and this value is ignored.

     --no-cdiff
	    Don't create a .cdiff file when building a new database file.

     --unsigned
	    Create a database file without digital signatures (.cud).

     --server
	    ClamAV  Signing  Service  address  (for  virus  database maintainers
	    only).

     --datadir=DIR
	    Use DIR as the default database directory for all operations.

     --unpack=FILE, -u FILE
	    Unpack FILE (CVD) to a current directory.

     --unpack-current
	    Unpack a local CVD file (main or daily) to current directory.

     --diff=OLD NEW, -d OLD NEW
	    Create a diff file for OLD and NEW CVDs/INCDIRs.

     --compare=OLD NEW, -c OLD NEW
	    This command will compare two text files and print differences in  a
	    cdiff format.

     --run-cdiff=FILE, -r FILE
	    Execute update script FILE in current directory.

     --verify-cdiff=FILE, -r FILE
	    Verify DIFF against CVD/INCDIR.

     -l[FILE], --list-sigs[=FILE]
	    List all signature names from the local database directory (default)
	    or from FILE.

     -fREGEX, --find-sigs=REGEX
	    Find  and display signatures from the local database directory which
	    match the given REGEX. The whole signature body (name,  hex  string,
	    etc.) is checked.

     --decode-sigs=REGEX
	    Decode  signatures	read  from  the  standard  input (eg. piped from
	    --find-sigs)

     --test-sigs=DATABASE TARGET_FILE
	    Test all signatures from DATABASE against TARGET_FILE.  This  option
	    will  only	give  valid  results if the target file is the final one
	    (after unpacking, normalization, etc.) for which the signatures were
	    created.

     --print-certs=FILE
	    Print Authenticode details from a PE file.

     --tempdir=DIRECTORY
	    Create temporary files in DIRECTORY. Directory must be writable  for
	    the user running sigtool.

     --leave-temps
	    Do not remove temporary files.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
     Sigtool uses the following environment variables:

     SIGNDUSER - The username to authenticate with the signing server when
     building a signed CVD database.

     SIGNDPASS - The password to authenticate with the signing server when
     building a signed CVD database.

EXAMPLES
     Generate hex string from testfile and save it to testfile.hex:

	    cat testfile | sigtool --hex-dump > testfile.hex
