=head1 NAME

Crypt::DES - Perl DES encryption module

=head1 SYNOPSIS

use Crypt::DES;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The module implements the Crypt::CBC interface,
which has the following methods

=over 4

=item blocksize
=item keysize
=item encrypt
=item decrypt

=back

=head1 FUNCTIONS

=over 4

=item blocksize

Returns the size (in bytes) of the block cipher.

=item keysize

Returns the size (in bytes) of the key. Optimal size is 8 bytes.

=item new

my $cipher = new Crypt::DES $key;

This creates a new Crypt::DES BlockCipher object, using $key,
where $key is a key of C<keysize()> bytes.

=item encrypt

my $cipher = new Crypt::DES $key;
	my $ciphertext = $cipher->encrypt($plaintext);

This function encrypts $plaintext and returns the $ciphertext
where $plaintext and $ciphertext should be of C<blocksize()> bytes.

=item decrypt

my $cipher = new Crypt::DES $key;
	my $plaintext = $cipher->decrypt($ciphertext);

This function decrypts $ciphertext and returns the $plaintext
where $plaintext and $ciphertext should be of C<blocksize()> bytes.

=back

=head1 EXAMPLE

my $key = pack("H16", "0123456789ABCDEF");
	my $cipher = new Crypt::DES $key;
	my $ciphertext = $cipher->encrypt("plaintex");	# NB - 8 bytes
	print unpack("H16", $ciphertext), "\n";

=head1 NOTES

Do note that DES only uses 8 byte keys and only works on 8 byte data
blocks.  If you're intending to encrypt larger blocks or entire files, 
please use Crypt::CBC in conjunction with this module.  See the
Crypt::CBC documentation for proper syntax and use.

Also note that the DES algorithm is, by today's standard, weak 
encryption.  Crypt::Blowfish is highly recommended if you're
interested in using strong encryption and a faster algorithm.
