PrettyPrintCrl - Man Page

reads a certificate revocation list (CRL) stored in an ASCII base-64 encoded file and outputs it in a readable format.

Synopsis

PrettyPrintCrl input-file [output-file]

Description

The PrettyPrintCrl command provides a command-line utility used to print the contents of a CRL stored as ASCII base-64 encoded data in a file to a readable format. The output of this command is displayed to standard output, but can be optionally saved into a specified file.

Options

<input-file>
   Mandatory. Specifies the path to the file that contains the ASCII base-64 encoded CRL.

<output-file>
   Optional. Specifies the path to the file to write the CRL.
   If the output file is not specified, the CRL information is written to the standard output.

Examples

The following example PrettyPrintCrl command takes the ASCII base-64 encoded CRL in the ascii_data.crl file and writes the CRL in the pretty-print format to the output file crl.out:

$ PrettyPrintCrl ascii_data.crl crl.out

For this example, the base-64 encoded CRL data in the ascii_data.crl looks like the following:

-----BEGIN X509 CRL-----

-----END X509 CRL-----

The CRL in pretty-print format in the crl.out file looks like the following:
