gfsec-use - Make use of a shared secret

       A configuration file describes one secret file to reconstruct.  Blank lines and lines starting with  a  #
       character are ignored.

       The following directives can be used:

       OUTFILE=file
              Specify the file to write the reconstructed secret into.

       RESTORE=command
              Specify the command to execute once the secret has been reconstructed.

       DESTROY=command
              Specify the command to execute to destroy the secret upon termination.

       MINSHARES=n
              Specify  the minimal number of shares needed to reconstruct the secret. The default if unspecified
              is 2.

       URI=uri
              Specify an URI indicating where to find a share.

       Supported URI schemes are:

       file:///
              Indicates a file on the local filesystem.

       uuid://uuid/
              Indicates a file on the external volume identified by the specified UUID.

       label://label/
              Indicates a file on the external volume identified by the specified label.

       mtp://serial/
              Indicates a file on the MTP device identified by the specified serial number.

       http://host/
              Indicates a file on a web server identified by its hostname.

       https://host/
              Same as the previous one, but the web server is to be accessed through a secure connection.

       Whatever the scheme, the file part of the URI must end with an extension indicating the share number,  as
       generated by gfsplit(1).

       The  URI  may  include  a  share=no  parameter, indicating that the corresponding file contains the whole
       secret and not only a share (in that case, the previous remark about the share number  in  the  extension
       does not apply).

       Another parameter is sha256, which specifies the expected SHA-256 hash value of the share data. If such a
       parameter is specified, a share will only be used if the data matches the expected hash value.

       The  gfsec-split(1)  program,  used  to  split a file into shares, will automatically generate a suitable
       configuration file allowing to reconstruct the original file.

gfsecret 0.5.1                                     2021-07-17                                       GFSEC-USE(1)

gfsec-use  reconstructs  a secret file that has been previously split using a tool like gfsplit(1) or the
       accompanying program gfsec-split(1).

       A user-specified command (or a shell) is spawn once the secret has been  reconstructed,  and  the  secret
       file is deleted when the command terminates.

       OUTFILE=/home/alice/mysecret
       MINSHARES=2
       URI=file:///home/alice/.local/share/gfsecret/mysecret.024
       URI=label://USBSTICK/mysecret.070?sha256=hex_hash
       URI=mtp://RF2GB6X704P/Documents/mysecret.139

-h, --help
              Display the help message.

       -v, --version
              Display the version message.

       -c, --configfile
              Specify  a configuration file. If the specified file does not exist, a .conf extension is appended
              to the filename and a corresponding file  is  searched  in  $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gfsecret.  When  that
              option is not used, a default configuration $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gfsecret/default.conf is assumed.

       -k, --keep
              Do not delete the reconstructed file upon termination of the specified command.

       -o, --outputfile
              Write  the reconstructed secret in the specified file. This overrides the OUTFILE parameter in the
              configuration file.

       -r, --restore-cmdcommand
              Execute the specified command instead of writing the reconstructed secret to a file. The secret is
              sent to the command's standard input.

       -d, --destroy-cmdcommand
              Execute the specified command instead of deleting the reconstructed secret file upon termination.
