## Notes
* https://en.wikipedia.org/Shamir's_Secret_Sharing
Manually reconstructing the secret from k strings:
* For each string of the k strings
* Create a file which name begins with `part` and ends with a dot and the first three characters of the string
* For example `part.112`
* Convert the 3rd to last character from base64 to binary and insert it into the file
* Execute `gfcombine part.*`
* The file `part` contains the reconstructed secret
