.SH NAME
GnuPG \- The GNU Privacy Guard suite of programs
.SH DESCRIPTION
GnuPG is a set of programs for public key encryption and digital
signatures.  The program most users will want to use is the OpenPGP
command line tool, named \fBgpg\fP.  \fBgpgv\fP is a stripped down
version of \fBgpg\fP with no encryption functionality, used only to
verify signatures against a trusted keyring.  There is also a tool
called \fBgpgsplit\fP to split OpenPGP messages or keyrings into their
component packets.  This is mainly useful for seeing how OpenPGP
messages are put together.
