hi,
i'm just using plain ADPU commands to read the content of the DF01:C000
file from
the card using my own program in java using javax.comm, the file has
814 bytes and it seems to containt some useful info like the issuer of
the card and the owner and also some junk and i have no ideea about how
to understand that info.I want to be able to read info from the user
and card issuer to not just sign (i other words i have no ideea about
signing at this point)
