How to Verify GPG Signature
Posted by: Mark Wallace

I can verify the MD5 hash by inspection, after computing it locally on the downloaded software file, but I don't know how to get the "Signature" onto my machine in order for gpg to compare it. When I click on "Signature" on your website, I get a popup showing me the gpg signature, but that doesn't appear to be transferrable to my machine (or at least I don't know how).

The instructions for using gpg --verify seem to suggest that there exists a .asc or .sig file on my machine at the time of the request. When I try to copy-and-paste into TextEdit and save as an .asc or .sig file, I get an error message from gpg.

I have imported your public key.

Thanks,

Mark
