sign - File signing and signature verification utility

'sign' is a file signing and signature verification utility. It implements gzip-style command line syntax and OpenSSH-style key-based authentication. It is small, fast, and is meant to facilitate the use of authenticated file hashing for online distributed material.

'sign' creates a digital signature of file's content and appends it to the file. 'unsign' verifies and strips the signature.
