* generation of message digests (hash values, checksums): md2,
md5, sha/shs, sha-1, haval, ripemd-128, -160, crc (polynomial
used by pgp), adler (based upon zlib);
* conversion to and from various data encodings: uuencoding,
base64-encoding, or ascii85-encoding, and binary, octal, or
hexadecimal representation;
* an error-correcting reed-solomon encoder/decoder;
* compression/decompression based on zlib and libbz2.
this package contains files to be used for development of c-based extensions which use the trf library.
