    <title>Introduction to GPGME</title>

    <para>The <application>GPGME</application> package is a C language library
    that allows to add support for cryptography to a program. It is designed to
    make access to public key crypto engines like
    <application>GnuPG</application> or GpgSM easier for applications.
    <application>GPGME</application> provides a high-level crypto API for
    encryption, decryption, signing, signature verification and key
    management.</para>
