## Add Key
Import a public key into your keyring.
1. Download the public key from the trusted individual. It can be saved
anywhere. For ease of backup, save them under `~/keys/`. Create this
directory if it does not exist in your home directory.
2. Import the key file.
gpg --import KEYFILE
3. Verify the key fingerprint. Your trusted source should provide you
with the fingerprint.
gpg --fingerprint
4. Optionally, edit the key and set the trust level. See the "Set Trust
Level" section.
