Hi all,

Anyone have any experience with the Crypt::Lite package from CPAN?

I just need a simple Pure Perl solution that I can integrate with the
XML::Simple package to encrypt/decrypt userids and passwords in an XML
file.  Since the application is buried deep within our company's
enterprise, there is little risk of an outside hack so I don't need a
complicated encryption algorithm, just something other than plain/clear
text which is what I have now in the XML file.

That said, my needs for a solution wee the following characteristics:
- Pure Perl, no C/C++ code and little or no dependencies.
- Portability, needs to migrate well between Windows (ActivePerl),
Cygwin (On windows) and Unix/Linux.
- Simple to use and understand...i.e. no cipher blocking and/or chunking
of data blocks to get it to work.

After a couple of hours of reading the Crypt:: packages in CPAN, I came
across the Crypt::Lite package and it seems to fit my needs above, but
having never used it I wanted to ask everyone what (if any) issues might
exist with it.


thx,
