I need to send my SSH Public Key to one of my customers, but I am not quite sure how to do this. I have already created a SSH key pair on my computer, but now I am stuck.

If you generated a key pair you should have two files id_rsa and id_rsa.pub (note that id_rsa may be replaced by an other name if you specified it) You just have to send your customer the file with the .pub extension
