      1 The crypto::blowfish module provides an implementation of Bruce Schneier's
      2 Blowfish encryption standard via the [[crypto::cipher::block]] interface. The
      3 use of this algorithm is not recommended except for legacy use-cases; prefer
      4 [[crypto::aes::]] when possible.
      5 
      6 When combined with a block cipher mode from [[crypto::cipher::]], suitable
      7 buffer lengths for static allocation are provided as constants such as
      8 [[BLOCKSZ]].
      9 
     10 This is a low-level module which implements cryptographic primitives. Direct use
     11 of cryptographic primitives is not recommended for non-experts, as incorrect use
     12 of these primitives can easily lead to the introduction of security
     13 vulnerabilities. Non-experts are advised to use the high-level operations
     14 available in the top-level [[crypto::]] module.
     15 
     16 Be advised that Hare's cryptography implementations have not been audited.
