Generate a new key pair. This command can only be
used interactive.
-B<--add-key> I<name>
- Add a subkey to an already existing key. This
- command is similiar to B<--gen-key> but a primary
- key must already exit.
-
-B<--sign-key> I<name>
- Make a signature on key of user I<name>.
- This looks for the key, displays the key and checks
- all existing signatures of this key. If the key is
- not yet signed by the default user (or the users given
- with B<-u>), the program displays the information of
- the key again, together with its fingerprint and
- asks whether it should be signed. This question
- is repeated for all users specified with B<-u>.
- The key is then signed and the keyring which
- contains the key is updated.
