Fingerprinting:

[OPTION]...
< INPUT-SEXP
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the sexp-conv command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. Instead, it has documentation in the GNU Info format; see below.sexp-conv is a program that converts S-expressions. It automatically detects the s-expression syntax variant of the input. It is primarily used by the `lsh' packages, which stores keys and most other objects on disk in that format, but may be of other use as well.
OPTIONS
This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below. For a complete description, see the Info files.- --hash=algorithm
- Output only the hash of the s-expression, using algorithm (default: sha1).
- --raw-hash
- Alias for --hash, for compatibility with lsh 1.x.
- --once
- Process exactly one s-expression.
- --spki-hash
- Output an SPKI hash for the object. Not yet implemented.
- -s, --syntax=format
- Variant of S-expression to output. Valid S-expression formats are: transport, canonical (binary), advanced, and hex (same as advanced, but numbers in hex instead of base64).
- -w, --width=width
- Limit output to lines of width characters (has no effect on canonical syntax). Zero means no limit.
- -?, --help
- Show summary of options.
- -V, --version
- Show version of program.
BUGS
This program should be documented in the nettle manual, not in the lsh manual.AUTHOR
