Doug Barton 989772c9ac The vast majority of pkg-descr files had the following format when they
had both lines:

Author: ...
WWW: ....

So standardize on that, and move them to the end of the file when necessary.

Also fix some more whitespace, and remove more "signature tags" of varying
forms, like -- name, etc.

s/AUTHOR/Author/

A few other various formatting issues

The seccure toolset implements a selection of asymmetric algorithms
based on elliptic curve cryptography (ECC). In particular it offers
public key encryption / decryption, signature generation /
verification and key establishment.
ECC schemes offer a much better key size to security ratio than
classical systems (RSA, DSA). Keys are short enough to make direct
specification of keys on the command line possible (sometimes this
is more convenient than the management of PGP-like key rings).
seccure builds on this feature and therefore is the tool of choice
whenever lightweight asymmetric cryptography -- independent of key
servers, revocation certificates, the Web of Trust or even
configuration files -- is required.
