Documentation

Overview

Use public key crypto to encrypt a data stream in a way, that the encrypting party can not necessarily decrypt the same data (unless she possesses the private key as well).

DEPRECATED: this provides confidentiality, but is malleable (ciphertext is not authenticated)

use Age instead
