NAME
    nseq - create or examine a netscape certificate sequence

SYNOPSIS
    openssl nseq [-in filename] [-out filename] [-toseq]

DESCRIPTION
    The nseq command takes a file containing a Netscape certificate
    sequence and prints out the certificates contained in it or takes a
    file of certificates and converts it into a Netscape certificate
    sequence.

COMMAND OPTIONS
    -in filename
   This specifies the input filename to read or standard input if this
   option is not specified.

    -out filename
   specifies the output filename or standard output by default.

    -toseq
   normally a Netscape certificate sequence will be input and the out-
   put is the certificates contained in it. With the -toseq option the
   situation is reversed: a Netscape certificate sequence is created
   from a file of certificates.

EXAMPLES
    Output the certificates in a Netscape certificate sequence

 openssl nseq -in nseq.pem -out certs.pem

    Create a Netscape certificate sequence

 openssl nseq -in certs.pem -toseq -out nseq.pem

NOTES
    The PEM encoded form uses the same headers and footers as a certifi-
    cate:

 -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
 -----END CERTIFICATE-----

    A Netscape certificate sequence is a Netscape specific form that can be
    sent to browsers as an alternative to the standard PKCS#7 format when
    several certificates are sent to the browser: for example during cer-
    tificate enrollment. It is used by Netscape certificate server for
    example.

BUGS
    This program needs a few more options: like allowing DER or PEM input
    and output files and allowing multiple certificate files to be used.
