6 sq-dearmor - Converts ASCII to binary
7
8 To make encrypted data easier to handle and transport, OpenPGP data can
9 be transformed to an ASCII representation called ASCII Armor. sq
10 transparently handles armored data, but this subcommand can be used to
11 explicitly convert existing ASCII-encoded OpenPGP data to its binary
12 representation.

14 The converse operation is "sq armor".
