+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+This command processes public or private keys. They can be
+converted between various forms and their components printed.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.IX Header "OPTIONS"
+.SS "General options"
+.IX Subsection "General options"
+.IP \fB\-help\fR 4
+.IX Item "-help"
+Print out a usage message.
+.IP "\fB\-engine\fR \fIid\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-engine id"
+See "Engine Options" in \fBopenssl\fR\|(1).
+This option is deprecated.
+.IP "\fB\-provider\fR \fIname\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-provider name"
+.PD 0
+.IP "\fB\-provider\-path\fR \fIpath\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-provider-path path"

+.IX Item "-provparam [name:]key=value"
+.IP "\fB\-propquery\fR \fIpropq\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-propquery propq"
+.PD
+See "Provider Options" in \fBopenssl\fR\|(1), \fBprovider\fR\|(7), and \fBproperty\fR\|(7).
+.IP \fB\-check\fR 4
+.IX Item "-check"
+This option checks the consistency of a key pair for both public and private
+components.
+.IP \fB\-pubcheck\fR 4
+.IX Item "-pubcheck"
+This option checks the correctness of either a public key
+or the public component of a key pair.
+.SS "Input options"
+.IX Subsection "Input options"
+.IP "\fB\-in\fR \fIfilename\fR|\fIuri\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-in filename|uri"
+This specifies the input file to read a key from
+or standard input if this option is not specified.
+.Sp
+If the key input is encrypted and \fB\-passin\fR is not given
+a pass phrase will be prompted for.
+.IP "\fB\-inform\fR \fBDER\fR|\fBPEM\fR|\fBP12\fR|\fBENGINE\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-inform DER|PEM|P12|ENGINE"
+The key input format; unspecified by default.
+See \fBopenssl\-format\-options\fR\|(1) for details.
+.IP "\fB\-passin\fR \fIarg\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-passin arg"
+The password source for the key input.
+.Sp
+For more information about the format of \fBarg\fR
+see \fBopenssl\-passphrase\-options\fR\|(1).
+.IP \fB\-pubin\fR 4
+.IX Item "-pubin"
+By default a private key is read from the input.
+With this option a public key is read instead.
+If the input contains no public key but a private key, its public part is used.
+.SS "Output options"
+.IX Subsection "Output options"
+.IP "\fB\-out\fR \fIfilename\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-out filename"
+This specifies the output file to save the encoded and/or text output of key
+or standard output if this option is not specified.
+The output filename can be the same as the input filename,
+which leads to replacing the file contents.
+Note that file I/O is not atomic. The output file is truncated and then written.
+.Sp
+If any cipher option is set but no \fB\-passout\fR is given
+then a pass phrase will be prompted for.
+When password input is interrupted, the output file is not touched.
+.IP "\fB\-outform\fR \fBDER\fR|\fBPEM\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-outform DER|PEM"
+The key output format; the default is \fBPEM\fR.
+See \fBopenssl\-format\-options\fR\|(1) for details.
+.IP \fB\-\fR\f(BIcipher\fR 4
+.IX Item "-cipher"
+Encrypt the PEM encoded private key with the supplied cipher. Any algorithm
+name accepted by \fBEVP_get_cipherbyname()\fR is acceptable such as \fBaes128\fR.
+Encryption is not supported for DER output.
+.IP "\fB\-passout\fR \fIarg\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-passout arg"
+The password source for the output file.
+.Sp
+For more information about the format of \fBarg\fR
+see \fBopenssl\-passphrase\-options\fR\|(1).
+.IP \fB\-traditional\fR 4
+.IX Item "-traditional"
+Normally a private key is written using standard format: this is PKCS#8 form
+with the appropriate encryption algorithm (if any). If the \fB\-traditional\fR
+option is specified then the older "traditional" format is used instead.
+.IP \fB\-pubout\fR 4
+.IX Item "-pubout"
+By default the private and public key is output;
+this option restricts the output to the public components.
+This option is automatically set if the input is a public key.
+.Sp
+When combined with \fB\-text\fR, this is equivalent to \fB\-text_pub\fR.
+.IP \fB\-noout\fR 4
+.IX Item "-noout"
+Do not output the key in encoded form.
+.IP \fB\-text\fR 4
+.IX Item "-text"
+Output the various key components in plain text
+(possibly in addition to the PEM encoded form).
+This cannot be combined with encoded output in DER format.
+.IP \fB\-text_pub\fR 4
+.IX Item "-text_pub"
+Output in text form only the public key components (also for private keys).
+This cannot be combined with encoded output in DER format.
+.IP "\fB\-ec_conv_form\fR \fIarg\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-ec_conv_form arg"
+This option only applies to elliptic\-curve based keys.
+.Sp
+This specifies how the points on the elliptic curve are converted
+into octet strings. Possible values are: \fBcompressed\fR (the default
+value), \fBuncompressed\fR and \fBhybrid\fR. For more information regarding
+the point conversion forms please read the X9.62 standard.
+\&\fBNote\fR Due to patent issues the \fBcompressed\fR option is disabled
+by default for binary curves and can be enabled by defining
+the preprocessor macro \fBOPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP\fR at compile time.
+.IP "\fB\-ec_param_enc\fR \fIarg\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-ec_param_enc arg"
+This option only applies to elliptic curve based public and private keys.
+.Sp
+This specifies how the elliptic curve parameters are encoded.
+Possible value are: \fBnamed_curve\fR, i.e. the ec parameters are
+specified by an OID, or \fBexplicit\fR where the ec parameters are
+explicitly given (see RFC 3279 for the definition of the
+EC parameters structures). The default value is \fBnamed_curve\fR.
+\&\fBNote\fR the \fBimplicitlyCA\fR alternative, as specified in RFC 3279,
+is currently not implemented in OpenSSL.
