.Sh EXAMPLES

Create a new keypair:

.Dl $ signify -p newkey.pub -s newkey.sec -G

.Dl $ signify -G -p newkey.pub -s newkey.sec

.Pp

Sign a file, specifying a signature name:

.Dl $ signify -s key.sec -i message.txt -o msg.sig -S

.Dl $ signify -S -s key.sec -o msg.sig message.txt

.Pp

Verify a signature, using the default signature name:

.Dl $ signify -p key.pub -i generalsorders.txt -V

.Dl $ signify -V -p key.pub generalsorders.txt
