Description:
 cpdu:
Cryptographic Data Utility
Cryptographic Package Distribution Utility
is a secure command line file encryption tool that
allows for archiving encrypted files
with secure memory allocation, zlib compression
and base encoding
it currently supports two ciphers
aes/rijndael: 256 bit key, 128 block
twofish: 256 bit key, 128 block
twofish is now used as the default cipher due to
speculation of the unsecurity of aes which has
been well known but moreover ignored due to a
however well sustained product of security

it has more room for improvement and in the future
will allow transferring encrypted files over the
internet using a server and client implementation,
the tar file has bcp(brutal oopy) along with it so
you can use that for now to transfer encrypted
files however no public key implementation has
been added so there must be an high level key
transfer method.


Changelog:
 0.3.1b:
added aes/rijndael cipher
bugfixes
0.3.2b:
minor feature enhancements
important bugfixes
0.3.3b:
major! bugfix with twofish being the non-default
cipher, perhaps a bug in program stack when
running, moreover an unknown error...the error
seemed to be random due to sometimes achieving
proper decryption and then not being able after
elonged peroid of use. im sure memory is being
allocated correctly but still, a weird
error...please forgive the bug :/
