+Description: command line tool for automatically acquiring certificates
+ acmetool is an easy-to-use command line tool for automatically acquiring
+ certificates from ACME servers (such as Let's Encrypt). Designed to flexibly
+ integrate into your webserver setup to enable automatic verification. Unlike
+ the official Let's Encrypt client, this doesn't modify your web server
+ configuration.
+ .
+ You can perform verifications using port 80 or 443 (if you don't yet have a
+ server running on one of them); via webroot; by configuring your webserver to
+ proxy requests for /.well-known/acme-challenge/ to a special port (402) which
+ acmetool can listen on.
+ .
+ acmetool is intended to be "magic-free". All of acmetool's state is stored in
+ a simple, comprehensible directory of flat files.
+ .
+ acmetool is intended to work like "make". The state directory expresses target
+ domain names, and whenever acmetool is invoked, it ensures that valid
+ certificates are available to meet those names. Certificates which will expire
+ soon are renewed. acmetool is thus idempotent and minimises the use of state.
