Playing with the possibilities of sup's hooks, I stumbled over the
sig-output hook. If I am not mistaken, signature has to meanings:
a) the signature block := text attached to the body of an message,
containing information on whatever the sender wants to inform
everybody (s)he is mailing to.
b) the cryptographic PGP/smime signature of the message ensuring the
identity of the sender.
If I am not mistaken, the sig-output hook seems to apply to the
signature type b)?
If so, it might be clarifying to change the description to:
---------------------->%----------------------
sig-output
----------
File: /home/ruthard/.sup/hooks/sig-output.rb
Runs when the PGP signature output is being generated, allowing you to
add extra information to your signatures if you want.
Variables:
signature: the signature object (class is GPGME::Signature)
from_key: the key that generated the signature (class is GPGME::Key)
Return value: an array of lines of output
---------------------->%----------------------
Yours, Ruthard

Thanks,
I'd be happy to accept a patch for this! There are some great tutorials
on how to use git out there (see email from somewhen earlier). That
would contain all the necessary information (e.g. which file to change).
