NAME
       sq packet dump - List packets

SYNOPSIS
       sq packet dump [OPTIONS] FILE

DESCRIPTION
       List packets.

       Creates a human-readable description of the packet sequence.
       Additionally, it can print cryptographic artifacts, and print the raw
       octet stream similar to hexdump(1), annotating specifically which bytes
       are parsed into OpenPGP values.

       If the packet stream includes an encryption container, `sq` will
       attempt to decrypt it.
