NAME

       monkeyscan - sign a key in a safe fashion using a webcam to scan for qr-codes

SYNOPSIS

       monkeyscan [options]

DESCRIPTION

       This  command  will fire up a graphical interface and turn on the webcam (if available) on
       this computer. It will also display a qr-code of your main OpenPGP key.

       The webcam is used to capture an OpenPGP fingerprint represented as a qrcode (or  whatever
       the zbar library can parse) and then go through a signing process.

       The  signature  is  then  encrypted  and  mailed  to  the  user.  This leave the choice of
       publishing the certification to that person and makes sure that person owns  the  identity
       signed.

       This program assumes you have gpg-agent configure to prompt for passwords.
