Unattended key generation
=========================
-There is an experimental feature which allows for unattended
-generation of keys controlled by a parameter file.
-This feature is not very well tested and does only make sense for some
-very special applications. Please don't complain if we decide to change
-the behaviour of this command.
-
-To use this feature, you use --gen-key together with --batch and feed the
-parameters either from stdin or from a file given on the commandline.
