If you're interested in making those unintelligible lines more
intelligible, you could also try running the key through gpg
--list-packets. if you've saved the file as example.cert, you'd do that
like this:
gpg --list-packets < example.cert
(this assumes a regular shell on a modern operating system. i don't
know if the windows shell supports this kind of redirection).
This will print out details of what exactly is in the certificate.
