Dan McGee cd8747ba6d Unify modelines in Asciidoc files
This gets us close to using the same modeline in all files we run
through Asciidoc, as well as adding the spell and spelllang
declarations, just as we had in NEWS already.

The choice of 'en_us' is mainly for consistency and because the body of
work already uses these spellings.

=============
Name
----
pacman-key - manage pacman's list of trusted keys
Synopsis
--------
'pacman-key' [options]
Description
-----------
'pacman-key' is a wrapper script for GnuPG used to manage pacman's keyring, which
is the collection of PGP keys used to check signed packages and databases. It
provides the ability to import and export keys, fetch keys from keyservers and
update the key trust database.
More complex keyring management can be achieved using GnuPG directly combined with
the `--homedir` option pointing at the pacman keyring (located in
+{sysconfdir}/pacman.d/gnupg+ by default).
Options
-------
*-a, \--add* [file(s)]::
Add the key(s) contained in the specified file or files to pacman's
keyring. If a key already exists, update it.
*\--config* <file>::
Use an alternate config file instead of the +{sysconfdir}/pacman.conf+
default.
*-d, \--delete* <keyid(s)>::
Remove the key(s) identified by the specified keyid(s) from pacman's
keyring.
*-e, \--export* [keyid(s)]::
Export key(s) identified by the specified keyid(s) to 'stdout'. If no keyid
is specified, all keys will be exported.
*\--edit-key * <keyid(s)>::
Present a menu for key management task on the specified keyids. Useful for
adjusting a keys trust level.
*-f, \--finger* [keyid(s)]::
List a fingerprint for each specified keyid, or for all known keys if no
keyids are specified.
*\--gpgdir* <dir>::
Set an alternate home directory for GnuPG. If unspecified, the value is
read from +{sysconfdir}/pacman.conf+.
*-h, \--help*::
Output syntax and command line options.
*--import* <dir(s)>::
Adds keys from pubring.gpg into pacman's keyring and imports ownertrust
values from trustdb.gpg in the specified directories.
*--import-dirs* <dir(s)> ::
Imports ownertrust values from trustdb.gpg in the specified directories.
*--init*::
Ensure the keyring is properly initialized and has the required access
permissions.
*-l, \--list*::
Equivalent to --list-sigs from GnuPG.
*-r, \--receive* <keyserver> <keyid(s)>::
Fetch the specified keyids from the specified key server URL.
*\--reload*::
Reloads the keys from the keyring package.
*-u, \--updatedb*::
Equivalent to \--check-trustdb in GnuPG.
* -v, \--verify* <signature>::
Verify the given signature file.
*-V, \--version*::
Displays the program version.
