NAME
     getkey — fetch one or more keys from an OpenPGP keyserver

SYNOPSIS
     getkey keyid...

DESCRIPTION
     The getkey utility invokes GnuPG to fetch one or more keys from an
     OpenPGP keyserver.

RETURN VALUES
     The getkey utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

ENVIRONMENT
     If the KEYSERVERS variable is set in the environment, getkey will use it
     to determine which keyservers to fetch the keys from, instead of using
     pool.sks-keyservers.net.

     If the standard HTTP_PROXY variable is set, and NOKEYPROXY is not, then
     getkey will pass a --http-proxy parameter to gpg(1).

FILES
     The getkey utility's operation is currently not directly affected by any
     files.

EXAMPLES
     Fetch some keys from a keyserver:

	   getkey 2527DF13 16194553

     Explicity specify the keyserver to use:

	   env KEYSERVERS=subkeys.pgp.net getkey 2527DF13

SEE ALSO
     gpg(1)

HISTORY
     The getkey utility was written by Peter Pentchev in 2000.
