+ * Typesetting fixes.
+ *
+ * Revision 1.6 2000/12/06 20:30:10 mdw
+ * Change secret sharing interface: present the secret at share
+ * construction time.
+ *
+ * Revision 1.5 2000/06/24 19:11:47 mdw
+ * Fix daft error in the comment for @gfshare_get@.
+ *
* Revision 1.4 2000/06/24 18:29:05 mdw
* Interface change: allow shares to be extracted from a context on demand,
* rather than building them all up-front.
s->t = t;
s->i = 0;
s->sz = sz;

* Arguments: @gfshare *s@ = pointer to share context to fill in

+ * @const void *buf@ = pointer to the secret to share

* Returns: ---

* Use: Initializes a sharing context to be able to create shares.
* The context structure is expected to be mostly filled in. In
