The command lists keys in the public keyring. It may be used to see the ID of the key so that a revocation certificate can be created. It is a good idea to copy the entire directory and the revocation certificate (in ASCII armor - ) to some secure medium (a CD-R or a USB drive stored in a safe location). Remember that the file can be used to revoke the keys and make them unusable in the future.
