79Esoteric commands:
80------------------
81
82To decrypt a message and leave the signature on it intact:
83     pgp -d ciphertextfile
84
85To create a signature certificate that is detached from the document:
86     pgp -sb textfile [-u your_userid]
87
88To detach a signature certificate from a signed message:
89     pgp -b ciphertextfile
90
91
92Command options that can be used in combination with other
93command options (sometimes even spelling interesting words!):
94-------------------------------------------------------------
95
96To produce a ciphertext file in ASCII radix-64 format, just add the
97-a option when encrypting or signing a message or extracting a key:
98     pgp -sea textfile her_userid
99or:  pgp -kxa userid keyfile [keyring]
100
101To wipe out the plaintext file after producing the ciphertext file,
102just add the -w (wipe) option when encrypting or signing a message:
103     pgp -sew message.txt her_userid
104
105To specify that a plaintext file contains ASCII text, not binary, and
106should be converted to recipient's local text line conventions, add
107the -t (text) option to other options:
108     pgp -seat message.txt her_userid
109
110To view the decrypted plaintext output on your screen (like the
111Unix-style "more" command), without writing it to a file, use
112the -m (more) option while decrypting:
113     pgp -m ciphertextfile
114
115To specify that the recipient's decrypted plaintext will be shown
116ONLY on her screen and cannot be saved to disk, add the -m option:
117     pgp -steam message.txt her_userid
118
119To recover the original plaintext filename while decrypting, add
120the -p option:
121     pgp -p ciphertextfile
122
123To use a Unix-style filter mode, reading from standard input and
124writing to standard output, add the -f option:
125     pgp -feast her_userid <inputfile >outputfile
126
127To include additional userids from a textfile when encrypting a
128message, use the -@ option:
129     pgp -e textfile one_userid -@moreids.txt
