# Seahorse
Seahorse is a graphical interface for managing and using encryption keys.
Currently it supports PGP keys (using GPG/GPGME) and SSH keys. Its goal is to
provide an easy to use Key Management Tool, along with an easy to use interface
for encryption operations.
Seahorse is integrated into the [GNOME] Desktop Environment and allows users to
perform operations from their regular applications, like nautilus or gedit.
