10 HsOpenSSL is an OpenSSL binding for Haskell. It can generate RSA
11 and DSA keys, read and write PEM files, generate message digests,
12 sign and verify messages, encrypt and decrypt messages. It has
13 also some capabilities of creating SSL clients and servers.
15 Please note that this project has started at the time when there
16 were no pure-Haskell implementations of TLS. Now there is tls
17 package (<http://hackage.haskell.org/package/tls>), which looks
18 pretty saner than HsOpenSSL especially for initialisation and
19 error handlings. So PHO (the initial author of HsOpenSSL) highly
20 encourages you to use and improve the tls package instead as long
