       sigtool - signature and database management tool

SYNOPSIS
       sigtool [options]

DESCRIPTION
       sigtool can be used to generate MD5 checksums, convert data into hexadecimal format, list virus signatures and build/unpack/test/verify CVD
       databases and update scripts.

OPTIONS
       -h, --help
	      Output help information and exit.

       -V, --version
	      Print version number and exit.

       --stdout
	      Write all messages to stdout.

       --hex-dump
	      Read data from stdin and write hex string to stdout.

       --md5 [FILES]
	      Generate MD5 checksum from stdin or MD5 sigs for FILES.

       --mdb [FILES]
	      Generate .mdb signatures for FILES.

       --html-normalise=FILE
	      Create normalised HTML files comment.html, nocomment.html, and script.html in current working directory.

       --utf16-decode=FILE
	      Decode UTF16 encoded data.

       --vba=FILE
	      Extract VBA/Word6 macros from given MS Office document.

       --vba-hex=FILE
	      Extract Word6 macros from given MS Office document and display the corresponding hex values.

       -i, --info
	      Print a CVD information and verify MD5 and a digital signature.

       -b, --build
	      Build a CVD file. -s, --server is required.

       --server
	      ClamAV Signing Service address (for virus database maintainers only).

       --unpack FILE, -u FILE
	      Unpack FILE (CVD) to a current directory.

       --unpack-current
	      Unpack a local CVD file (main or daily) to current directory.

       --diff=OLD NEW, -d OLD NEW
	      Create a diff file for OLD and NEW CVDs/INCDIRs.

       --run-cdiff=FILE, -r FILE
	      Execute update script FILE in current directory.

       --verify-cdiff=FILE, -r FILE
	      Verify DIFF against CVD/INCDIR.

       -l[FILE], --list-sigs[=FILE]
	      List all signature names from the local database directory (default) or from FILE.

       -fREGEX, --find-sigs=REGEX
	      Find and display signatures from the local database directory which match the given REGEX.  The  whole  signature  body  (name,  hex
	      string, etc.) is checked.

       -fREGEX, --decode-sigs=REGEX
	      Decode signatures read from the standard input (eg. piped from --find-sigs)

       -fREGEX, --test-sigs=DATABASE TARGET_FILE
	      Test all signatures from DATABASE against TARGET_FILE.

EXAMPLES
       Generate hex string from testfile and save it to testfile.hex:

	      cat testfile | sigtool --hex-dump > testfile.hex
