We're mixing different terms here: digest and signature
Signature is usually used in the context of public key crypto, digest is
mostly used with for hashes. The command uses both interchangeably.
How about:
-a <algo> hash or signature algorithm to use
-k <key> use supplied <key> (ASCII or hex) for MAC
-K <file> use key from <file> (binary) for MAC
-v <hex> verify data against supplied <hex> (hash, MAC or signature)
-V <file> verify data against <file> (hash, MAC or signature)

Jan
