+How to use ssh keys in PGP signatures
+=====================================
+
+1. generate a new ssh key pair
+
+ % ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -f sshtest-20140202
+ Generating public/private rsa key pair.
+ Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
+ Enter same passphrase again:
+ Your identification has been saved in sshtest-20140202.
+ Your public key has been saved in sshtest-20140202.pub.
+ The key fingerprint is:
+ 73:98:cf:3d:89:05:a1:6b:39:6b:24:f9:10:32:7a:05 agc@netbsd-001.cupertino.alistaircrooks.com
+ The key's randomart image is:
+ +--[ RSA 4096]----+
+ | E . |
+ | . . . |
+ | o o . . |
+ | . + o = . |
+ | . . + S . . |
+ | . * B + . |
+ | + + + |

+
+2. sign newdata using netpgp
+
+ % netpgp -s -S sshtest-20140202 newdata
+ signature 4096/RSA (Encrypt or Sign) 1c5ef29143e3e3ae 2014-02-02
+ Key fingerprint: a4eb b577 ff2e f878 ea40 8c14 1c5e f291 43e3 e3ae
+ uid netbsd-001.cupertino.alistaircrooks.com (sshtest-20140202.pub) <agc@netbsd-001.cupertino.alistaircrooks.com>
+ %
+
+3. verify signature on newdata
+
+ % ./netpgpverify -S sshtest-20140202.pub newdata.gpg
+ Good signature for newdata.gpg made Sun Feb 2 13:40:07 2014
+ signature 4096/RSA (Encrypt or Sign) 1c5ef29143e3e3ae 2014-02-02
+ fingerprint a4eb b577 ff2e f878 ea40 8c14 1c5e f291 43e3 e3ae
+ uid netbsd-001.cupertino.alistaircrooks.com (sshtest-20140202.pub) <agc@netbsd-001.cupertino.alistaircrooks.com>
+
+ %
+
+4. get the contents of the file (only if the signature verifies ok)
+
+ % ./netpgpverify -c cat -S sshtest-20140202.pub newdata.gpg
