+.TH Mono "sn"
+.SH NAME
+sn \- Digitally sign/verify/compare strongname on CLR assemblies.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.PP
+.B sn [-q | -quiet] [options] [parameters]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Digitally sign, verify or compare, CLR assemblies using strongnames.
+.SH CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
+Configuration options are stored in the machine.config configuration file
+under /configuration/strongNames.
+.TP
+.I "-c provider"
+Change the default CSP (Crypto Service Provider). Currently not supported
+in Mono.
+.TP
+.I "-m [y|n]"
+Use a machine [y] key container or a user [n] key container. Currently not
+supported in Mono.
+.TP
+.I "-Vl"
+List the verification options. The list is kept under /configuration/
+strongNames/verificationSettings in machine.config.
+.TP
+.I "-Vr assembly [userlist]"
+Exempt the specified assembly from verification for the specified user list.
+Currently not supported by sn, you must edit machine.config manually if you
+require this.
+.TP
+.I "-Vu assembly"
+Remove the exemption entry for the specified assembly. Currently not
+supported by sn, you must edit machine.config manually if you require this.
+.TP
+.I "-Vx"
+Remove all exemptions entries. Currently not supported by sn, you must edit
+machine.config manually if you require this.
+.SH CSP RELATED OPTIONS
+.TP
+.I "-d container"
+Delete the keypair present in the specified key container.
+.TP
+.I "-i keypair.snk container"
+Import the specified strongname file into the specified container.
+.TP
+.I "-pc container publickey"
+Export the public key from the specified CSP container to the specified file.
+.SH CONVERTION OPTIONS
+.TP
+.I "-e assembly output.pub"
+Export the assembly public key to the specified output file.
+.TP
+.I "-p keypair.snk output.pub"
+Export the public key from the specified strongname key file (SNK) to the
+specified output file.
+.TP
+.I "-o input output.txt"
+Convert the input file to a CSV file (using decimal).
+.TP
+.I "-oh input output.txt"
+Convert the input file to a CSV file (using hexadecimal).
+.SH STRONGNAME SIGNING OPTIONS
+.TP
+.I "-D assembly1 assembly2"
+Compare if assembly1 and assembly are the same exception for their signature.
+This is done by comparing the hash of the metadata of both assembly.
+.TP
+.I "-k keypair.snk"
+Create a new strongname keypair (a 1024 bits RSA keypair) in the specified
+file.
+.TP
+.I "-R assembly keypair.snk"
+Resign the specified assembly using the specified strongname keypair file
+(SNK). You can only sign an assembly with the private key (SNK) that match
+the public key inside the assembly (unless it's public key token has been
+remapped in machine.config).
+.TP
+.I "-Rc assembly container"
+Resign the specified assembly using the specified strongname container.
+.TP
+.I "-t file"
+Show the public key from the specified file.
+.TP
+.I "-tp file"
+Show the public key and the public key token from the specified file.
+.TP
+.I "-T assembly"
+Show the public key from the specified assembly.
+.TP
+.I "-Tp assembly"
+Show the public key and the public key token from the specified assembly.
+.TP
+.I "-v assembly"
+Verify the specified assembly signature.
+.TP
+.I "-vf assembly"
+Verify the specified assembly signature (even if disabled).
+.SH HELP OPTIONS

+.SH CONFIGURATION FILE
+.TP
+Strongnames configuration is kept in "machine.config" file. Currently two
+features can be configured.
+.TP
+.I "/configuration/strongNames/pubTokenMapping"
+This mechanism let Mono remap a public key token, like the ECMA token, to
+another public key for verification. This is useful in two scenarios. First
+assemblies signed with the "ECMA key" needs to be verified by the "runtime"
+key (as the ECMA key isn't a public key). Second, many assemblies are signed
+with private keys that Mono can't use (e.g. System.Security.dll assembly).
+A new key cannot be used because it should change thr strongname (a new key
+pair would have a new public key which would produce a new token). Public
+key token remapping is the solution for both problems. Each token must be
+configured in a "map" entry similar to this one: <map Token="b77a5c561934e089"
+PublicKey="00..." />
+.TP
+.I "/configuration/strongNames/verificationSettings"
+It is often useful during development to use delay signed assemblies.
+Normally* the runtime wouldn't allow delay-signed assemblies to be loaded.
+This feature allows some delay-signed assemblies (based on their public key
+token, optionally assembly name and user name) to be used like they were
+fully signed assemblies. [*] Note that Mono 1.0 "runtime" doesn't validate
+strongname signatures so this option shouldn't be required in most scenarios.
