# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|' on
# the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must make
# exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also customary to
# leave one space after the ':'.

mhash: mhash (Thread-safe hash library)
mhash:
mhash: mhash is a thread-safe hash library, implemented in C, and provides a
mhash: uniform interface to a large number of hash algorithms (MD5, SHA-1,
mhash: HAVAL, RIPEMD128, RIPEMD160, TIGER, GOST). These algorithms can be
mhash: used to compute checksums, message digests, and other signatures.
mhash: The HMAC support implements the basics for message authentication,
mhash: following RFC 2104.
