NAME

       sq inspect - Inspect data, like file(1)

SYNOPSIS

       sq inspect [OPTIONS] FILE

DESCRIPTION

       Inspect data, like file(1).

       It is often difficult to tell from cursory inspection using cat(1) or file(1) what kind of OpenPGP one is
       looking  at.   This  subcommand inspects the data and provides a meaningful human-readable description of
       it.

       `sq inspect` respects the reference time set by the top-level `--time` argument.  It uses  the  reference
       time when determining what binding signatures are active.
