how can I read the details of a public key written by

If possible you should use PEM_write_RSA_PUBKEY instead.

Otherwise for OpenSSL 1.0.0 and later you can use the (currently undocumented:
about to fix that) -RSAPublicKey_in option.


It works:

openssl rsa  -in $FILENAME -pubin -RSAPublicKey_in -text

Dear Steve, you're a lifesaver. Thanks!
