* add assembler support for more CPUs. (work, but easy)
* improve iobuf by reading more than one byte at once,
this shoud espceially done for the buffer in the chain.
* add a way to difference between errors and eof in the underflow/flush
function of iobuf.
* check that all output is filtered when displayed.
* keyring editing
* add trust stuff
* make ttyio.c work (hide passwords etc..)
* use correct ASN values for DEK encoding
* add checking of armor trailers
* add real secure memory
* look for a way to reuse RSA signatures
* remove all "Fixmes"
* speed up the RIPE-MD-160
* add signal handling
* enable a SIGSEGV handler while using zlib functions
* PGP writes the signature and then the file, this is not
a good idea, we can't write such files if we take input from stdin.
So the solution will: accept such packet, but write
signature the corret way: first the data and then the signature[s]
this is much easier to check, also we must read the entire data
before we can check wether we have the pubkey or not. The one-pass
signature packets should be implemented to avoid this.
* compress does not work always!
* complete cipher/cast.c
* complete cipher/dsa.c
* define a standard way to specify keyid/userid and other stuff
to identify a user. We could look at the first character and
say: If it's a digit, a keyid follows (need to add a zero in
case the keyid starts with A..F); if it is a left angle bracket,
this is a email address and should be used, all others are substrings
of the userid.
