pkictl
======
Pkictl can be used to manage the lifecycle of keys and certificates.
Its main purpose is the creation of certificates and control through rules of the
certification process. But it can also be used to sign and verify messages based
on private/public keys.
The focus is on easy commands with clear error messages to make work for the admin
or user as easy as possible. But it can also be used in scripts to implement
automated workflows.
features

The following commnds will be implemented:
* create private key (RSA or ECDSA)
