Hello,
This quastion was posted in the Dutch newsgroup nl.comp.crypt and I didn't
know the answer so I'll ask it here:
When you clearsign a file which contains lines that start with a dash, an
extra dash is introduced, why is that?
vulcan:~> cat 1.txt
- <00000fba640b$00006af8$00005f2f@210.160.73.146>
- <00001e370ac4$000003ab$000063b5@vio.co.jp>
vulcan:~> gpg --clearsign 1.txt
[asking for passwd, etc.]
vulcan:~> cat 1.txt.asc
