+     This module implements a chaining block cipher using a one
+     way hash.  This method of encryption is the same that is
+     used by radius (RFC2138) and is also described in Applied
+     Cryptography.
+ 
+     Two interfaces are provided in the module.  The first is
+     straight block encryption/decryption the second does base64
+     mime encoding/decoding of the encrypted/decrypted blocks.
+ 
+     The idea is the the two sides have a shared secret that
+     supplies one of the keys and a randomly generated block of
+     bytes provides the second key.  The random key is passed in
+     cleartext between the two sides.
+ 
+     An example client and server are packaged as modules with
+     this module.  They are used in the tests.
