NAME
       sq-packet-armor - Convert binary	to ASCII

SYNOPSIS
       sq packet armor [OPTIONS] FILE

DESCRIPTION
       Convert binary to ASCII.

       To make encrypted data easier to	handle and transport, OpenPGP data can
       be transformed to an ASCII representation called	ASCII Armor.  sq emits
       armored data by default,	but this subcommand can	be used	to convert ex-
       isting OpenPGP data to its ASCII-encoded	representation.

       The converse operation is `sq packet dearmor`.

OPTIONS
   Subcommand options
       --label=LABEL
	      Select the kind of armor header

	      [default:	auto]

	      [possible	values:	auto, message, cert, key, sig, file]

       --output=FILE
	      Write to FILE or stdout if omitted

	      [default:	-]

	FILE  Read from	FILE or	stdin if FILE is '-'

	      [default:	-]

   Global options
       See sq(1) for a description of the global options.

EXAMPLES
       Convert a binary	OpenPGP	message	to an ASCII armored OpenPGP message.

	      sq packet	armor message.bin

       Convert	a  binary  OpenPGP message to an ASCII armored OpenPGP message
       explicitly choosing the armor label.
