Enter 'help' to get a list of all possible commands.

If they haven't yet spread there keys they can remove the wrong user ids 
with 'deluid'. Note that you first have to mark the user id which 
should be deleted with 'uid <number of userid>'.

If they have already spread there key then they have to revoke their 
signature on the wrong user ids with 'revsig'.

They can create a new user id with 'adduid'.
