ReadMe file for FancySSL-Tools


Introduction:
=============

FancySSL-Tools provides some tools to ease handling of SSL stuff,
i.e. certificate chains and the like.


Command overview:
=================


* fssl-inspect

Reads certificate files and lists the certificates' basic infos.


Mini Roadmap:
=============


- fssl-split

Reads certificate chain files and creates PEM files with on certificate each.


- fssl-rechain

Reads a certificate file and certificate chain files resp. CA files, 
and tries to create a valid and eventual simpler new trust chain file.

Using comments before each certificate block it should be ease to
delete the end certificate or root CAs in a text editor.  


Internal Milestones towards Roadmap goals:
==========================================

- Introduce CertInfo, extending AbstractSecurityObjectInfp
  - use it in info holder

- move info logging from parsing phase to program-dependend logging calls
