I thought I was being disingenuous after Bill Godfrey's plaint, "just a
sandbox".
But why is there RACF entanglement? Accommodation to French law which
(formerly?) harshly prohibits encryption? (I suspect ROT13 is proscribed.)
How does that law accommodate HTTPS?
Are there C header files for APIs to these? On Linux, I see:
man sha1
...
#include <openssl/sha.h>
...
(I know there are assembler APIs. C would be more portable.)
It's a pity there's no standard for these. I find sha1, sha1sum,
openssl dgst -sha1, ...
