 The function @code{gpgme_op_verify} verifies that the signature in the
-data object @var{sig} is a valid signature.  If @var{plain} is
-initialized with plaintext data, it is assumed that @var{sig} is a
-detached signature, and its validity for the plaintext given in
-@var{plain} is verified.  If @var{plain} is an uninitialized data
-object, it is assumed that @var{sig} is a normal (or cleartext)
-signature, and the plaintext is available in @var{plain} after
-successful verification.
