Revision history for Perl module Digest::SHA::PurePerl.

5.42  Mon Jul 24 04:04:40 MST 2006
	- minor code changes suggested by Perl::Critic
		-- e.g. no bareword filehandles, no 2-argument open's
	- updated public key (ref. B538C51C)
		-- previous one (0AF563FE) expired July 2, 2006
	- added documentation to warn that Base64 digests are NOT padded
		-- padding must be done by user if interoperability
			with other software is required

5.41  Sat Jun  3 01:50:46 MST 2006
	- corrected addfile
		-- process $file argument as a filehandle unless passed
			as a SCALAR (which indicates a file name)

5.40  Fri Jun  2 04:00:30 MST 2006
	- modified addfile to accept indirect filehandles
		-- ref. rt.cpan.org #19627 and #19641

5.39  Sun May 28 03:22:24 MST 2006

	- added new capabilities to the "addfile" method
		-- now able to accept file names as well as handles

			-- thanks to Adam Kennedy for emails and ideas
				ref. File::LocalizeNewlines
	- used expanded addfile interface to simplify shasum (sumfile)
		-- regex a tad less general than 5.37, but handles all
			known newline variants in UNIX/Windows/MacOS
	- enhanced WARNING messages from shasum checkfile processing
		-- to mimic behavior of md5sum

5.37  Mon May  8 04:30:09 MST 2006
	- modified shasum to avoid file slurping (ref. sub sumfile)
	- improved error handling of checksum files in shasum
		-- to better mimic the behavior of md5sum

			thanks to Gisle Aas for suggested patch

5.32  Fri Dec  2 02:32:20 MST 2005
	- added POD section to shasum script
		-- thanks to Gunnar Wolf for patch

		-- to recover gracefully if Test::More isn't installed

5.31  Mon Sep  5 00:52:42 MST 2005
	- added standard tests for pod and pod-coverage checking
	- inserted subtest to check for failure when using
		unrecognized SHA algorithm
	- consolidated code for SHA and HMAC-SHA functions
		-- removed 190 lines by building functions at runtime
	- harmonized _sharewind and _shaopen subs with C versions
		-- other minor code cleanups

5.30  Sat Aug 20 16:46:08 MST 2005
	- updated docs with recent NIST statement on SHA-1
		-- advises use of larger and stronger hash functions
			(i.e. SHA-224/256/384/512) for new developments

5.29  Sun Aug 14 04:48:34 MST 2005
	- updated docs with cautionary note about SHA-1

5.28  Wed Nov 10 15:33:20 MST 2004
	- provided more flexible formatting of SHA state files
		-- entries may now contain embedded whitespace
			for improved readability
	- minor code cleanups

5.27  Sun Oct 24 02:54:00 MST 2004
	- minor code cleanups
		-- reduces size of dump files for SHA-1/224/256

5.26  Thu Oct  7 14:52:00 MST 2004
	- streamlined distribution
		-- reduced NIST vector tests from 200 to 20
			-- former number was overkill
			-- distro now downloads and builds more quickly
	- rewrote SYNOPSIS sections in pod file

	- cleaned up test scripts

5.25  Sun Sep 12 18:48:00 MST 2004

		-- made it consistent with Digest::SHA docs

0.06  Tue Aug  3 02:12:40 MST 2004
	- improved performance of SHA-384/512
		-- using inline eval'ed code instead of subroutines
