-GnuPG itself is a commandline tool without any graphical stuff. It is
-the real crypto engine which can be used directly from a command prompt,
-from shell scripts or by other programs. Therefore it can be considered
-as a backend for other applications.
-
-However, even when used on the command line it provides all
-functionality needed - this includes an interactive menu system. The set
-of commands of this tool will always be a superset of those provided by
-any frontends.

-- Full replacement of PGP.
-- Does not use any patented algorithms.
-- GPLed, written from scratch.
-- Can be used as a filter program.
-- Full OpenPGP implementation (see RFC4880 at [[http://www.rfc-editor.org/][RFC Editor]]).
-- Better functionality than PGP and some security enhancements over
- PGP 2.
-- Decrypts and verifies PGP 5, 6 and 7 messages.
-- Supports ElGamal, DSA, RSA, AES, 3DES, Blowfish, Twofish, CAST5, MD5,
- SHA-1, RIPE-MD-160 and TIGER.
-- Easy implementation of new algorithms using extension modules.

+* GnuPG --- The Universal Crypto Engine
+
+ GnuPG is a command line tool without any graphical user interface.
+ It is an universal crypto engine which can be used directly from a
+ command line prompt, from shell scripts, or from other programs.
+ Therefore GnuPG is often used as the actual crypto backend of other
+ applications.
+
+ Even when used on the command line it provides all functionality
+ needed - this includes an interactive menu system. The set of
+ commands of this tool will always be a superset of those provided by
+ any frontends.
+
+ - Full OpenPGP implementation (see RFC4880 at [[http://www.rfc-editor.org/][RFC Editor]]).
+ - Full CMS/X.509 (S/MIME) implementation.
+ - Ssh-agent implementation
+ - Runs on all Unix platforms, Windows and macOS.
+ - A full replacement of PGP; written from scratch.
+ - Does not use any patented algorithms.
+ - Freely available under the GPL;
+ - Can be used as a filter program.
+ - Better functionality than PGP with state of the art security features.
+ - Decrypts and verifies PGP 5, 6 and 7 messages.
+ - Supports RSA, ECDH, ECDSA, EdDSA, Elgamal, DSA, AES, Camellia,
+ 3DES, Twofish, SHA2, and many more algorithms.
+ - Language support for a load of languages.
+ - Online help system.
+ - Optional anonymous message receivers.
+ - Integrated support for HKP keyservers (sks-keyservers.net).
