=head1 DESCRIPTION
This command is used to manipulate or generate DSA parameter files.
DSA parameter generation can be a slow process and as a result the same set of
DSA parameters is often used to generate several distinct keys.
=head1 OPTIONS
=over 4
=item B<-help>
Print out a usage message.
=item B<-inform> B<DER>|B<PEM>
The DSA parameters input format; unspecified by default.
See L<openssl-format-options(1)> for details.
=item B<-outform> B<DER>|B<PEM>
The DSA parameters output format; the default is B<PEM>.
See L<openssl-format-options(1)> for details.
Parameters are a sequence of B<ASN.1 INTEGER>s: B<p>, B<q>, and B<g>.
This is compatible with RFC 2459 B<DSS-Parms> structure.
=item B<-in> I<filename>
This specifies the input filename to read parameters from or standard input if
this option is not specified. If the I<numbits> parameter is included then
this option will be ignored.
=item B<-out> I<filename>
This specifies the output filename parameters to. Standard output is used
if this option is not present. The output filename should B<not> be the same
as the input filename.
=item B<-noout>
This option inhibits the output of the encoded version of the parameters.
=item B<-text>
This option prints out the DSA parameters in human readable form.
=item B<-genkey>
This option will generate a DSA either using the specified or generated
parameters.
=item B<-verbose>
Print extra details about the operations being performed.
=item B<-quiet>
Print fewer details about the operations being performed, which may
be handy during batch scripts and pipelines.
{- $OpenSSL::safe::opt_r_item -}
{- $OpenSSL::safe::opt_engine_item -}
=item I<numbits>
This optional argument specifies that a parameter set should be generated of
size I<numbits>. If this argument is included then the input file (if any) is
ignored.
=item I<numqbits>
This optional argument specifies that a parameter set should be generated with
a subprime parameter q of size I<numqbits>. It must be the last argument. If
this argument is included then the input file (if any) is ignored.
