setup_smart_card: initialise OpenGPG keys and move to card

Version:setup_smart_card 0.1

This program automates the generation and storage of OpenGPG smart-card keys.

I used it to generate the program output listings on my rant page Setting up an OpenPGP Smart Card because I had to generate those multiple times. For one time generation, you should just follow that page and not use this program.

If you use this program, you should do so in a secure environment (as per the rant page). That in order to minimize leakage of your secret keys and your pass phrase. For this program the pass phrase and admin pin have to be input on the commandline, and in generating the listing I do not use my real pass phrase anyway.

The program can be of some use for programmatic generation and handling of keys from Python, as it drives gpg --edit-key ... programmatically, something not all other Python wrappers pgp do.
