<P>
<HR WIDTH="100%">
While I might be able to come up with a competitive compressor, I
don't have a snowball's chance to code up encryption.  I'd be better
off piping the data through the standard Unix crypt command.
<P>
So, while I was lazy with Compress, I'm realistic with Crypt.  I'll
show you the hooks and entry points and let someone else contribute an 
encryptor.
