30 .PP
31 Blowfish is Bruce Schneier's symmetric block cipher. It supports
32 variable length keys from 32 to 448 bits and has a block size of 64
33 bits. Both CBC and ECB modes are supported.
34 .PP
35 setupBFstate takes a BFstate structure, a key of at most 56 bytes, the
36 length of the key in bytes, and an initialization vector of 8 bytes
37 (set to all zeroes if argument is nil). The encryption and decryption
38 functions take a BFstate structure, a data buffer, and a length, which
39 must be a multiple of eight bytes as padding is currently unsupported.
