Chapter 1. Introduction

Kleopatra is the KDE tool for managing X.509 certificates in the GpgSM keybox and for retrieving certificates from LDAP servers.

Kleopatra can be started from KMail's Tools menu, as well as from the command line. The Kleopatra executable is named kleopatra.

Note

This program is named after Cleopatra, a famous female Egyptian pharaoh that lived at the time of Julius Caesar, whom she is said to have had an intimate relationship with.

The name was chosen since this program originates from the Ägypten Projects (Ägypten is German for Egypt). Kleopatra is the German spelling of Cleopatra.
