πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
pgpainless-cli extract-cert [--[no-]armor] [--stacktrace]
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so the vibe is: you hand her a secret key on STDIN, and she hands you back the matching public key certificate on STDOUT. no cap, that's literally the entire thing. π
it's giving "i have the whole key but i only wanna share the public half" and honestly? iconic. π
β¨ OPTIONS β¨
--[no-]armorβ ASCII armor the output. so like, wrap it in that cute lil'-----BEGIN PGP...-----jacket so it's copy-paste friendly and travels well. π (theno-prefix turns it off, obviously, because she's flexible like that.)--stacktraceβ print stacktrace. if something goes sideways and you're like "girl, WHAT happened", this is your backstage pass. π«Ά
