Hello,
is there a typo in the following section?
5.5.3. Secret Key Packet Formats
The Secret Key and Secret Subkey packets contain all the data of the
Public Key and Public Subkey packets, with additional algorithm-
specific secret key data appended, in encrypted form.
The packet contains:
- A Public Key or Public Subkey packet, as described above
- One octet indicating string-to-key usage conventions. 0
indicates that the secret key data is not encrypted. 255
indicates that a string-to-key specifier is being given. Any
other value is a symmetric-key encryption algorithm specifier.
- [Optional] If string-to-key usage octet was 255, an one-octet
===========
symmetric encryption algorithm.
should it be replaced by "was between 0 and 255"?
Since a symmetric encryption algorithm specifier is given only if the
preceding value is between 0 and 255.
Am I right?
