+	The output is on the level of individual verifiables.
+
+	Range describes the area which the verifiable covers. Possible
+	values are:
+	- *Header*: The main header of the package
+	- *Payload*: The payload of the package
+	- *Legacy*: The main header and the payload of the package
+
+	Description includes general information about this verifiable,
+	such the algorithm name and OpenPGP version of a signature.

Oh, indeed. Missed the fact about digests :facepalm: 

Still, I guess the added explanation doesn't hurt, but describing the actual format may indeed be unnecessary and would just encourage people to write parsers for it... :smile:
