    I make often use of the CLI package 'TLDR', to get a small cheat-sheet on almost every CLI command. CAL has also a TLDR output, nearly the same as you have shown us. Thank you for this interesting topic.

      I was about to comment saying I wish that was a feature. I don't have it either. What terminal emulator are you using?

      Yes, please... I would like to know how to make simple task with It, because it's a bit confuse creating keys, signing, checking sign from a file, adding and checking keys in local and remote vaults, etc.

    I find the word "command" a bit misleading. With a command I think about built-in functions for the shell. What cal and most other 'commands' really are: the name of a binary in your PATH-directories, you just start up the program and you possibly give input-variables to the main function. Of course I know that you know this and you want to keep it beginner-friendly. It might be interesting to explain that sometime? It helps to better understand what you are doing?
