\chapter{CRYPTOGRAPHIC EXTENSIONS}
The modules described in this chapter implement various algorithms of
a cryptographic nature. They are available at the discretion of the
installation.

Hardcore cypherpunks will probably find the Python Cryptography Kit of
further interest; the package adds built-in modules for DES and IDEA
encryption, and provides a Python module for reading and decrypting
PGP files. The Python Cryptography Kit is not distributed with Python
but available separately. See the URL
\file{http://www.cs.mcgill.ca/\%7Efnord/crypt.html} for more information.
