     * XML Security Library example: Verifying a file using a single key.
     *
     * Verifies a file using a key from PEM file.
     *
     * Usage:
     *      verify1 <signed-file> <pem-key>
     *
     * Example:
     *      ./verify1 sign1-res.xml rsapub.pem
     *      ./verify1 sign2-res.xml rsapub.pem
