  10                 ecptd CURVE R H G
  11         where CURVE is a curve-spec, R and H are the curve's order and
  12         cofactor, and G is the common point in standard point
  13         representation, hybrid, compressed or uncomressed.  It either
  14         prints an error indicating that the curve or point was bad, or a

  21         standard, terminating each one by a `.' on its own line.

  23         is run to format the whole thing into a nice ectab.in chunk.
