PMakKeys is a tool to make
secret and public key pairs for use in writing and verifying
digital signatures, just like
<a href="../makekeys/index.html">MakeKeys</a>,
except that it uses a different format that is more
or less compatible with the program MacPGP.

<p>
The tools
<a href="../psgwrite/index.html">PSgWrite</a>
and
<a href="../psgcheck/index.html">PSgCheck</a>
use the keys generated by PMakKeys.
</p>
<p>
PMakKeys is in part descended from MacPGP source code, which, as far as
I can tell, allows derived works for noncommercial use. PMakKeys is
generally compatible with MacPGP, but it is easier to legally
distribute, since it doesn&rsquo;t do cryptography. Since it only does
one thing it should also be easier to use.
</p>
<p>
PMakKeys generates keys compatibile with MacPGP, but it
does not encrypt the secret key.
Another difference with MacPGP is that PMakKeys sets the user name
field to "anon", rather than asking for one.

Here is the md5 checksum for the download, signed with
