# The two routines (des_set_key and des_ecb_encrypt)
# take 8 byte objects as arguments.
#
# des_set_key takes an 8 byte string as a key and returns a key schedule
# for use in calls to des_ecb_encrypt.
# des_ecb_encrypt takes three arguments, the first is a key schedule
# (make sure to pass it by reference with the *), the second is 1
# to encrypt, 0 to decrypt. The third argument is an 8 byte object
# to encrypt. The function returns an 8 byte object that has been
# DES encrypted.

# Use find.pl and `lstat' rather than reading a pipe from find(1):
# For better portability, as not all finds support -fstype or -ls;
# indexing into the find string breaks on device special files and
# filenames containing whitespace; `split' was breaking up the
# string inconsistently because of leading whitespace (using
# split(' ') and changing the indexing could also fix this).
