ab8c12ecde Correct layout. By breaking this line into an additional line, the output is
not just one single line but it is two lines, where one is blank.  That is
inconsistent with the other examples.

7621bec9f3 Add instructions on creating an OpenPGP key. Also add a checkkey.sh
script that can be used to test keys for minimal security requirements.
A long list of people helped with this.  In particular, Michael Lucas
and David Wolfskill contributed many corrections and suggestions.  I
started the script based on the addkey.sh script, and David Wolfskill
worked it into something usable.  After more testing, the text can
suggest using it to check keys before committing them.
