-Description: Catacomb utilities in Python
+ Catacomb is a cryptographic library. It implements a large number of
+ encryption algorithms, hash functions, message authentication codes
+ and random number generators. It has a multi-precision maths library,
+ for implementing public key schemes such as RSA, DSA and Diffie-Hellman.
+ It contains rudimentary key-management tools.
+ .
+ The objective of Catacomb is to make a crypto library which is
+ relatively straightforward to audit for security. Its focus is on
+ clarity of source code and portability more than performance.
+ .
+ This package allows the Catacomb library to be used in Python programs.
