NAME
       sq download - Download and authenticate the data

SYNOPSIS
       sq download [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION
       Download and authenticate 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.



OPTIONS
   Subcommand options
       --cleartext
              Verify a cleartext-signed message

       --message
              Verify an inline signed message

       --output=FILE
              Write to FILE or stdout if FILE is '-'

       --signature-url=URL
              URL of the signature

              Use this when the signature is detached from the data.

              If no signature is specified, then the signature is assumed to
              be inline.


       --signatures=N
              Set the threshold of valid signatures to N

              If this threshold is not reached, the message will not be
              considered verified.
