cryptonite
==========
Cryptonite is a haskell repository of cryptographic primitives. Each crypto
algorithm have specificities, that are hard to wrap in common APIs and types,
so instead of trying to provide a common ground for algorithms that wouldn't
allow to provide all different usage or a really complicated system, this just
provide a non-consistant low-level API.
If you have no idea what're you doing, please do not use this directly, rely on
higher level protocols or higher level implementation.
