NAME
       VOMS::Lite::PEMHelper - Perl extension for decoding and encoding PEM
       X.509 certificates and keys.

SYNOPSIS
	 use VOMS::Lite::PEMHelper qw( writeAC encodeCert encodeAC readAC readCert decodeCert writeCertKey readPrivateKey writeCert writeKey);

	 # write DER AC $data as a PEM AC to file $file
	 writeAC($file,$data);

	 # encode DER Certificate $data as a PEM Certificate
	 $cert=encodeCert($data);

	 # encode DER AC $data as a PEM AC
	 $ac=encodeAC($data);

	 # read PEM AC in file $file and return DER AC
	 $data=readAC($file);

	 # read PEM Certificates in file $file and return DER Certificates
	 # in array
	 @certs=readCert($file);

	 # read PEM Certificates in file $file and return the first as a DER
	 # Certificate
	 $cert=readCert($file);

	 # takes a string and/or array of PEMs followsd by a type as arguments
	 # and decodes them into an array of DERs
	 @DERs=decodeCert(@PEMs,"CERTIFICATE");

	 # take DER certificate, private key and (optionally) a chain of
	 # signers and write them in PEM format to file $file
	 writeCert($file, $cert);

	 # take DERprivate key and write it in PEM format to file $file,
	 # encrypting with $password. If $password is undefined it will prompt
	 # for a password, if password is "" no encryption will be used.
	 writeKey($file, $privateKey, $password);

	 # take DER certificate, private key and (optionally) a chain of
	 # signers and write them in PEM format to file $file
	 writeCertKey($file, $cert, $privateKey, @chain);

	 # read in a PEM private key, prompt for a password if encrypted and
	 # return unencrypted DER private key.
	 $key=readPrivateKey($file);

DESCRIPTION
       VOMS::Lite::PEMHelper is primarily for internal use.  But frankly I
       don't mind if you use this package directly :-)
