Synopsis

goathtool incompletely reproduces the functionality of nongnu.org's oathtool http://www.nongnu.org/oath-toolkit/man-oathtool.html. How incompletely is to be determined. The intent is to implement the functionality the primary author uses most and then -- as time or PRs occur -- to fill in more of the features. The author also intends to differ in implementation of defaults and invocation.

goathtool will only implement the short flags. The author intends to forgo 3rd party libraries.
