Well, actually everything in between "-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----" and
"-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----" is a computed hash of the entire file that
was sent.

The idea is that you have the same software on your end, it computes a hash
for the file, and compares it to the PGP Signature. If the two don't match,
then someone tampered with the file while it was en route to you...
