GPG

With GnuPG you can sign messages. The signature looks something below. Does this contain more than just a hash, and if so, what/how can this be made visible?


-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux)

Ok I understand. But what is encoded in ---BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE--- part.
Is it like a base64 encoded structure, and if so, how can I examine what is in there. In contrast, openssl has the ability to read these things and format them into human readable text so you can examine the actual values used for signing. I read the GPG documentation, searched the web, and cannot find a method to do this for GPG. It seems that it is intentional to obfuscate the the signature, but I cannot imagine this is the case.
