process_keys(1)

✨ process_keys ✨

okay so bestie, real talk β€” this is the process_keys page from the General Commands Manual, and it is short, but it's doing something genuinely iconic for the Web of Trust girlies. 🫢


πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

process_keys β€” Web of Trust analysis


🌸 SYNTAX 🌸

process_keys [ -S ]

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so here's the tea β˜• β€” process_keys takes whatever pgpring(1) spits out and turns it into the correct shape of input for keyanalyze(1). it's giving matchmaker. it's giving translator. it's giving glow-up pipeline. ✨

not me reminding you that pgpring has to be called with the -S option so it also dumps signatures. like, the signatures are the whole point, bestie, don't skip them. 😭

it acts as a filter β€” reading from stdin and writing to stdout. that's it. that's the vibe. in through one door, out through the other, no drama, no files, no side quests. πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -S β€” accepts keys that are not selfsigned. not recommended. like, lowkey do not do this unless you know exactly what you're doing. πŸ™ˆ

and that's the whole page, fr fr 🌈 β€” the little footer down at the bottom is just the page name again, process_keys(1), no version, no date, no source stamp, just the icon doing a lil curtain call. mwah. πŸ’–πŸŽ€
