15The "gpg" module is a python interface to the GPGME library:
16<https://www.gnupg.org/software/gpgme/>
17
18"gpg" offers two interfaces, one is a high-level, curated, and idiomatic
19interface that is implemented as a shim on top of the low-level
20interface automatically created using SWIG.
21
22This way we make simple things easy, while still providing the entire
23functionality of the underlying library.
