# Crypt::DSA::Key::PEM(3pm)

Read/write DSA PEM files

## NAME

Crypt::DSA::Key::PEM - Read/write DSA PEM files

## SYNOPSIS

```
    use Crypt::DSA::Key;
    my $key = Crypt::DSA::Key->new( Type => 'PEM', ...);
    $key->write( Type => 'PEM', ...);
```

## DESCRIPTION

*Crypt::DSA::Key::PEM* provides an interface to reading and writing DSA PEM files, using *Convert::PEM*. The files are ASN.1-encoded and optionally encrypted.

You shouldn't use this module directly. As the SYNOPSIS above suggests, this module should be considered a plugin for *Crypt::DSA::Key*, and all access to PEM files (reading DSA keys from disk, etc.) should be done through that module.

Read the *Crypt::DSA::Key* documentation for more details.
