-This is Eric Young's SSL and Crypto library. It includes
+The package includes
 
 libssl.a:
-	An implementation of Netscapes SSL v 2 protocol.  This library
-	implements the SSL protocol.
+	My implementation of SSLv2, SSLv3 and the required code to support
+	both SSLv2 and SSLv3 in the one server.
 
 libcrypto.a:
 	General encryption and X509 stuff needed by SSL but not
 	actually logically part of it.  It includes routines for the following:
+
+  Ciphers
+	libdes - My libdes DES encryption package which has been floating
+		around the net for a few years.  It includes 15
+		'modes/variations' of DES (1, 2 and 3 key versions of ecb,
+		cbc, cfb and ofb; pcbc and a more general form of cfb and ofb)
+		including desx in cbc mode,
+		a fast crypt(3), and routines to read passwords from the
+		keyboard.
 	RC4 encryption,
-	IDEA encryption - 4 different modes, ecb, cbc, cfb and ofb.
+	RC2 encryption 		- 4 different modes, ecb, cbc, cfb and ofb.
+	Blowfish encryption	- 4 different modes, ecb, cbc, cfb and ofb.
+	IDEA encryption		- 4 different modes, ecb, cbc, cfb and ofb.
+
+  Digests
+	MD5 and MD2 message digest algorithms, fast implementations,
 	SHA (SHA-0) and SHA-1 message digest algorithms,
-	RSA encryption/decryption/key generation.  There is no limit
+	MDC2 message digest.  A DES based hash that is polular on smart cards.
+
+  Public Key
+	RSA encryption/decryption/generation.  There is no limit
 		on the number of bits.
+	DSA encryption/decryption/generation.   There is no limit on the
+		number of bits.
 	Diffie-Hellman key-exchange/key generation.  There is no limit
 		on the number of bits.
-	X509 encoding/decoding into/from binary ASN1 and a
-		PEM based ascii-binary encoding which supports encryption
-		with a private key.
-
-As this is a FreeBSD port, it has been tailored to FreeBSD.  It
-uses the DES, MD2 and MD5 from FreeBSD 2.2+. Earlier versions of
-freebsd have a DES library that is missing bits, and SSLeay will
-not compile properly. The answer is to get the latest secure/ dist.
+
+  X509v3 certificates
+	X509 encoding/decoding into/from binary ASN1 and a PEM
+		based ascii-binary encoding which supports encryption with
+		a private key.
+	Program to generate RSA and DSA certificate requests and to
+		generate RSA and DSA certificates.
+
+  Systems
+  	The normal digital envelope routines and base64 encoding.
+	Higher level access to ciphers and digests by name.  New ciphers can be
+		loaded at run time.
+	The BIO io system which is a simple non-blocking IO abstraction.
+		Current methods supported are file descriptors, sockets,
+		socket accept, socket connect, memory buffer, buffering,
+		SSL client/server, file pointer, encryption, digest,
+		non-blocking testing and null.
+  Data structures
+  	A dynamically growing hashing system
+	A simple stack.
+	A Configuration loader that uses a format similar to MS .ini files.
+
+Programs in this package include
+	enc	- a general encryption program that can encrypt/decrypt using
+		one of 17 different cipher/mode combinations.  The
+		input/output can also be converted to/from base64
+		ascii encoding.
+	dgst	- a generate message digesting program that will generate
+		message digests for any of md2, md5, sha (sha-0 or sha-1)
+		or mdc2.
+	asn1parse - parse and display the structure of an asn1 encoded
+		binary file.
+	rsa	- Manipulate RSA private keys.
+	dsa	- Manipulate DSA private keys.
+	dh	- Manipulate Diffie-Hellman parameter files.
+	dsaparam- Manipulate and generate DSA parameter files.
+	crl	- Manipulate certificate revocation lists.
+	crt2pkcs7- Generate a pkcs7 object containing a crl and a certificate.
+	x509	- Manipulate x509 certificates, self-sign certificates.
+	req	- Manipulate PKCS#10 certificate requests and also
+		  generate certificate requests.
+	genrsa  - Generates an arbitrary sized RSA private key.
+	gendh	- Generates a set of Diffie-Hellman parameters, the prime
+		  will be a strong prime.
+	ca	- Create certificates from PKCS#10 certificate requests.
+		  This program also maintains a database of certificates
+		  issued.
+	verify	- Check x509 certificate signatures.
+	speed	- Benchmark SSLeay's ciphers.
+	s_server- A test SSL server.
+	s_client- A test SSL client.
+	s_time	- Benchmark SSL performance of SSL server programs.
+	errstr	- Convert from SSLeay hex error codes to a readable form.
