I _think_ you meant "see gpg.format", but I am not 100% sure.

When X is a synonym for Y, Y is also a synonym for X, so technically speaking this does not matter, but when we talk about backward compatibility fallback, I think we say "OLDway is retained as a legacy synonym for NEWway", i.e. the other way around.

Also, `typeset in tt` what end-users would type literally, like configuration variable names, i.e.

	Use this to customize the rpogram used for the signing
	format you chose (see `gpg.format`).  `gpg.program` can
	still be used as a legacy synonym for `gpg.openpgp.program`.
