- * "An 'Autocrypt Setup Message' securely shares your end-to-end setup with other Autocrypt-compliant apps.
- * The setup will be encrypted by a setup code which is displayed here and must be typed on the other device.
- * ~~~
- *
- * After that, this function should be called to send the Autocrypt Setup Message.
- * The function creates the setup message and adds it to outgoing message queue.
- * The message is sent asynchronously.
- *
- * The required setup code is returned in the following format:
- *
- * ~~~
- * 1234-1234-1234-1234-1234-1234-1234-1234-1234
- * ~~~
- *
- * The setup code should be shown to the user then:
- *
- * ~~~
- * "Your key has been sent to yourself. Switch to the other device and
- * open the setup message. You should be prompted for a setup code. Type
- * the following digits into the prompt:
- *
- * 1234 - 1234 - 1234 -
- * 1234 - 1234 - 1234 -
- * 1234 - 1234 - 1234
- *
- * Once you're done, your other device will be ready to use Autocrypt."
- * ~~~
- *
- * On the _other device_ you will call dc_continue_key_transfer() then
- * for setup messages identified by dc_msg_is_setupmessage().
- *
- * For more details about the Autocrypt setup process, please refer to
