    // This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    // Let's Encrypt provides four .pem files
    // 1. fullchain.pem
    // 2. privkey.pem
    // 3. cert.pem
    // 4. chain.pem

    // The cert.pem and chain.pem are redundant. 
    // The fullchain.pem is composed of the cert.pem and chain.pem.

    // To convert the PEM's to a single .pfx, we don't need the redundant data.
    // The privkey.pem and fullchain.pem provide the required data.
    // We can ignore cert.pem and chain.pem (because those certs are already found in fullchain.pem).

    // We need a single .pem file that contains both the private key, the cert,
    // and the certs in the chain of authentication.
    // Let's combine priveky.pem and fullchain.pem into a single .pem
