+`jwt` command-line tool
+=======================
+
+This is a simple tool to sign, verify and show JSON Web Tokens from
+the command line.
+
+The following will create and sign a token, then verify it and output the original claims:
+
+     echo {\"foo\":\"bar\"} | bin/jwt -key test/sample_key -alg RS256 -sign - | bin/jwt -key test/sample_key.pub -verify -
+
+To simply display a token, use:
+
+    echo $JWT | jwt -show -
