Oups. I was sure, I have installed libssl-dev before. Thank you, it works now.
I'm sad about io.sockets.secure not working under Windows. I'm currently starting portable project, where SSL/TLS will become requirement on later stage. I hope, no major problems restrict this library to be UNIX-only, so it can be ported eventually? And about generic libcrypto routines - any abstractions I'll be using, I'll contribute back, of course.
