Producing printable QR codes for persistent storage of GPG private keys
# Heavily depends on:
# libqrencode (fukuchi.org/works/qrencode/)
# paperkey (jabberwocky.com/software/paperkey/)
# zbar (zbar.sourceforge.net)
# Producing the QR codes:
# Split over 4 codes to ensure the data per image is not too large.
