opinion of Crypt::DES & Crypt::IDEA




-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----



Hello,

Does anybody on this list have an opinion of the quality of the 
Crypt::DES and Crypt::IDEA perl modules?  I'm concerned with whether 
or not the modules use electronic code book instead of cipher block 
chaining encryption mode.  The documentation does not make this 
clear.  If nobody knows the answer to this I'll figure it out from 
the source code.  However, I suspected I could save some time by 
asking here.

Besides this question, does anybody have an opinion of the quality of 
these routines?  I'm not asking for opinions regarding the quality or 
lack of quality of DES or IDEA, but of these particular 
implementations.

thanks much,
 -john.
