#### 4.7.6 List available keys

To list the keys in the internal database or using an external key provider, the command:

           LISTKEYS  pattern

is used. To allow multiple patterns (which are ORed during the search) quoting is required: Spaces are to be translated into "+" or into "%20"; in turn this requires that the usual escape quoting rules are done.

           LISTSECRETKEYS pattern

Lists only the keys where a secret key is available.

The list commands commands are affected by the option

           OPTION list-mode=mode

where mode may be:

`0`
  Use default (which is usually the same as 1).
`1`
  List only the internal keys.
`2`
  List only the external keys.
`3`
  List internal and external keys.

Note that options are valid for the entire session.
