Subject: [9fans] OT: the simplest public key encryption code...
Topicbox-Message-UUID: c4da2994-ead1-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

I ask here as those who read this list have an understanding of the word simple.

I am after some very simple public key encryption code which I intend to use to
encrypt the md5 of a license file on an embedded system - so in needs to be
really small and simple.

I am tempeted to use the plan9 RSA code, but is there somthing else even simpler
about? Perhaps less secure than RSA but stronger than a password embedded in
the code, XORed with 0xdeadbeef :-)

Anyone seen anything on the net?
