Hi,

some folks asked, whether it is possible to change
the version line of ascii armored messages.

This is really easy:  Use your preferred editor (what about sed)
and change this line or any other header lines.  These lines are
not included in the hash of the message, so it doesn't matter whether
they are changed or not.  That's an OpenPGP "feature".
