This is a self-contained port of OpenBSD's signify to Linux and other Unixes. Like on OpenBSD, this version of signify uses the Ed25519 primitive for signing/verification, ChaCha for random number generation, and a bcrypt-based KDF to protect secret keys. Signatures and keys are 100% compatible with OpenBSD. passphrase-20140902.diff adds the ability to add, change, or remove secret key passphrases. This function is not currently available on OpenBSD but in no way undermines compatibility of keys and signatures. HOWTO and the manpage contain sample usage. mancha Based on http://sourceforge.net/projects/slackdepot/files/signify/, this fork builds libsignify additionally to be used with external tools Harshavardhana
