.. \*(C` and \*(C' are quotes in nroff, nothing in troff, for use with C<>.

Escape single quotes in literal strings from groff's Unicode transform.

If the F register is >0, we'll generate index entries on stderr for
titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.SS), items (.Ip), and index
entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process the
output yourself in some meaningful fashion.

Avoid warning from groff about undefined register 'F'.

Title "OPENSSL-NSEQ 1" For nroff, turn off justification. Always turn off hyphenation; it makes
way too many mistakes in technical documents.
openssl-nseq - create or examine a Netscape certificate sequence Header "SYNOPSIS" \fBopenssl nseq [-help] [-in filename] [-out filename] [-toseq] [-provider name] [-provider-path path] [-propquery propq] Header "DESCRIPTION" This command takes a file containing a Netscape certificate sequence and prints out the certificates contained in it or takes a file of certificates and converts it into a Netscape certificate sequence.

A Netscape certificate sequence is an old Netscape-specific format that can be sometimes be sent to browsers as an alternative to the standard PKCS#7 format when several certificates are sent to the browser, for example during certificate enrollment. It was also used by Netscape certificate server.

Header "OPTIONS" Item "-help" Print out a usage message. Item "-in filename" This specifies the input filename to read or standard input if this option is not specified. Item "-out filename" Specifies the output filename or standard output by default. Item "-toseq" Normally a Netscape certificate sequence will be input and the output is the certificates contained in it. With the -toseq option the situation is reversed: a Netscape certificate sequence is created from a file of certificates. Item "-provider name"

0

Item "-provider-path path" Item "-propquery propq"

See "Provider Options" in openssl\|(1), provider\|(7), and property\|(7).

Header "EXAMPLES" Output the certificates in a Netscape certificate sequence

.Vb 1 openssl nseq -in nseq.pem -out certs.pem .Ve

Create a Netscape certificate sequence

.Vb 1 openssl nseq -in certs.pem -toseq -out nseq.pem .Ve
