The seckeygen script is a shell (non-Windows) or batch (Windows) script that maintains keys in a flat-file format compatible with the VersionedDataSealer plugin. It is designed to be run on a scheduled basis with a fixed set of options to generate new keys and maintain a certain number of older keys, keeping the file from growing larger than intended.

The following command line options are available:
