When reading the manual page of the RSA utility ("man rsa"), one
cannot easily determine whether the output will be in PKCS#1 or PKCS#8
format and whether that format  depends on other options. The only
thing that is specified is the DER/PEM encoding of the output, which
is not a format per se.

It should be stated clearly, whether the output is in PKCS#1 or PKCS#8 format

On a similar note, the man page for the pkcs8 utility states that
depending on option values, the input and output formats may be PKCS#8
or in the traditional format - this should be clarified, what
"traditional" format is - is it PKCS#1?
