+.TH GNUPG 7 2002-09-02 GNU "GNU Privacy Guard"
+.SH NAME
+GnuPG \- The GNU Privacy Guard suite of programs
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+GnuPG is a set of programs for public key encryption and digital
+signatures. The program most users will want to use is the OpenPGP
+command line tool, named \fBgpg\fP. \fBgpgv\fP is a stripped down
+version of \fBgpg\fP with no encryption functionality, used only to
+verify signatures against a trusted keyring. There is also a tool
+called \fBgpgsplit\fP to split OpenPGP messages or keyrings into their
+component packets. This is mainly useful for seeing how OpenPGP
+messages are put together.
