                              crypto v1.0.0

           Simple AES/DES encryption and SHA1/SHA2 hashing library
  
===============================================================================

Crypto provides a simple implementation of the Rijndael (now AES) and DES
encryption algorithms as well as the SHA1 and SHA2 hashing algorithms. The
library is almost a verbatim copy of the code from OpenBSD and PuTTY:


  OpenBSD respository source code
