@mscdex Is it possible to parse ed25519 keys in pem format? Currently i have to use other tools to transfer it into openssh format

@mscdex mscdex removed the invalid label May 25, 2023

The PEM format returned by getPrivatePEM() is for use with OpenSSL and is not currently supported by parseKey(), the reason being it's not a common format when dealing with SSH keys.
