+indicates a command rather than a status message, the response to the
+command should be written to @var{fd}. The @var{handle} is provided
+by the user at start of operation.

+Note: This function is deprecated, please use

+
+The function @code{gpgme_op_edit} processes the key @var{KEY}

+command request from the crypto engine. The output of the crypto
+engine is written to the data object @var{out}.
+
+Note that the protocol between the callback function and the crypto
+engine is specific to the crypto engine and no further support in
+implementing this protocol correctly is provided by @acronym{GPGME}.
+
+The function returns the error code @code{GPG_ERR_NO_ERROR} if the

+The function @code{gpgme_data_new_with_read_cb} creates a new

+read pointer if it is invoked with @var{buffer} and @var{nread} being
+@code{NULL} and @var{count} being @code{0}.
+
+The function returns the error code @code{GPG_ERR_NO_ERROR} if the

+@c Key Signatures
+@c
+The signatures on a key are only available if the key was retrieved
+via a listing operation with the @code{GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_SIGS} mode
+enabled, because it is expensive to retrieve all signatures of a key.
+
+So, before using the below interfaces to retrieve the signatures on a
+key, you have to make sure that the key was listed with signatures
+enabled. One convenient, but blocking, way to do this is to use the
+function @code{gpgme_get_key}.
+
+@deftp {Data type} gpgme_attr_t
+The @code{gpgme_attr_t} type is used to specify a key signature
+attribute. The following attributes are defined:
+

+This is the key ID of the key which was used for the signature. It is
+representable as a string.
+
+@item GPGME_ATTR_ALGO
+This is the crypto algorithm used to create the signature. It is
+representable as a string and as a number. The numbers correspond to
+the @code{enum gcry_pk_algos} values in the gcrypt library.
+
+@item GPGME_ATTR_CREATED
+This is the timestamp at creation time of the signature. It is
+representable as a number.
+
+@item GPGME_ATTR_EXPIRE
+This is the expiration time of the signature. It is representable as
+a number.
+
+@item GPGME_ATTR_USERID
+This is the user ID associated with the signing key. The user ID is
+representable as a number.
+
+@item GPGME_ATTR_NAME
+This is the name belonging to a user ID. It is representable as a string.
+
+@item GPGME_ATTR_EMAIL
+This is the email address belonging to a user ID. It is representable
+as a string.
+
+@item GPGME_ATTR_COMMENT
+This is the comment belonging to a user ID. It is representable as a
+string.
+
+@item GPGME_ATTR_KEY_REVOKED
+This specifies if a key signature is a revocation signature. It is
+representable as a number, and is @code{1} if the key is revoked, and
+@code{0} otherwise.
+
+@c @item GPGME_ATTR_KEY_EXPIRED

+

+This status should not occur in normal operation.

+This status indicates that the signature is valid. For the combined

+
+@item GPGME_SIG_STAT_GOOD_EXP
+This status indicates that the signature is valid but expired. For
+the combined result this status means that all signatures are valid
+and expired.
+
+@item GPGME_SIG_STAT_GOOD_EXPKEY
+This status indicates that the signature is valid but the key used to
+verify the signature has expired. For the combined result this status
+means that all signatures are valid and all keys are expired.
+
+@item GPGME_SIG_STAT_BAD
+This status indicates that the signature is invalid. For the combined
+result this status means that all signatures are invalid.
+
+@item GPGME_SIG_STAT_NOKEY
+This status indicates that the signature could not be verified due to
+a missing key. For the combined result this status means that all
+signatures could not be checked due to missing keys.

+This status indicates that the signature data provided was not a real
+signature.
+
+@item GPGME_SIG_STAT_ERROR
+This status indicates that there was some other error which prevented
+the signature verification.
+
+@item GPGME_SIG_STAT_DIFF
