(Obsolete) Dumb question: How do I get the BBCode raw format of the OP thread to verify the signature? (this is not because I doubt its authenticity, it's because I found it impressive that OP managed to sign such a nicely formatted post and would like to know whether it's possible to reverse the process in order to verify.

I would also like to call on those who put themselves forward as candidates to write up a self-description post like those linked by solex.

 

[solex]

Aha. @freetrader It doesn't seem to reverse easily. I recall that I had the same problem when I tried to verify one of your texts which had white-spaces earlier in the year.
I have put a smaller signed message text at the end. Can you try that?

 

[freetrader]

Anyone around here use and trust this code?
http://bitcoin-gen.org/

(looking at it specifically for the bitsig functionality, because my version of Armory does not recognize Solex's simplified signature above as valid, and I'm looking for a simple offline tool that reliably does the job)

 

[solex]

@freetrader
Just did one more without any special chars, can you try that?

 

[freetrader]

Thanks Solex, that validated ok with my Armory.

Still interested if anyone has been using that software or looked at it in detail.
