PIUS(1)                     General Commands Manual                    PIUS(1)

NAME
       pius - PGP Individual UID Signer

SYNOPSIS
       pius [options] -s <signer-keyid> <keyid> [ <keyid>  ... ]
       pius [options] -A -r <keyring-path> -s <signer-keyid>

DESCRIPTION
       pius is a tool for individually signing all of the UIDs on a set of
       keys, and emailing an encrypted copy of each such signature to the
       email address associated with that UID.

       As a result of this process, the recipient can choose which signatures
       to import. Also, signatures of inactive uids are not delivered. This
       tool greatly reduces time and error when signing keys.

OPTIONS
       --version
              show program's version number and exit

       -h, --help
              show this help message and exit

       -A, --all-keys
              Sign all keys on the keyring. Requires -r.

       -d, --debug
              Enable debugging output.

       -b PATH, --gpg-path=PATH
              Path to gpg binary. [default: /usr/bin/gpg2]

       -e, --encrypt-outfiles
              Encrypt output files with respective keys.

       -H HOSTNAME, --mail-host=HOSTNAME
              Hostname of SMTP server. [default: localhost]

       -I, --import
              Also import the unsigned keys from the keyring into the default
              keyring. Ignored if -r is not specified, or if it's the same as
              the default keyring.

       -m FROM-EMAIL, --mail=FROM-EMAIL
              Email the encrypted, signed keys to the respective email
              addresses using FROM-EMAIL as the sender. See also -H and -P.

       -M FILE, --mail-text=FILE
              Use the text in FILE as the body of email when sending out
              emails instead of the default text. To see the default text use
              --print-default-email. Requires -m.

       -N, --no-sort-keyring
              Do not sort the keyring by name.

       -n TO-EMAIL, --override-email=TO-EMAIL
              Rather than send to the user, send to this address. Mostly
              useful for debugging.

       -o OUTPUT-DIR, --out-dir=OUTPUT-DIR
              Directory to put signed keys in. [default: /tmp/pius_out]

       -r KEYRING, --keyring=KEYRING
              The keyring to use. Be sure to specify full or relative path.
              Just a filename will cause GPG to assume relative to ~/.gnupg.
              [default: ~/.gnupg/pubring.gpg]

       -s SIGNER-KEYID, --signer=SIGNER-KEYID
              The keyid to sign with (required).

       -f KEYID, --force-signer=KEYID
              Force GnuPG to use this exact keyid to sign (do not guess
