       Download and authenticates the data.

       This  command  downloads  the  data from the specified URL, checks the signature, and then
       authenticates the signer.  If the signer cannot be authenticated, the data is deleted,  if
       possible.

       --signature=URL
              URL of the signature.

              Use this when the signature is detached from the data.
