=head1 NAME

Crypt::TEA - Tiny Encryption Algorithm

=head1 SYNOPSIS

use Crypt::TEA;

$cipher = Crypt::TEA->new($key);

$ciphertext = $cipher->encrypt($plaintext);

$plaintext  = $cipher->decrypt($ciphertext);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

TEA is a 64-bit symmetric block cipher with a 128-bit key and a variable
number of rounds (32 is recommended). It has a low setup time, and
depends on a large number of rounds for security, rather than a complex
algorithm. It was developed by David J. Wheeler and Roger M. Needham,
and is described at
<http://www.ftp.cl.cam.ac.uk/ftp/papers/djw-rmn/djw-rmn-tea.html>.

This module implements TEA encryption. It supports the Crypt::CBC
interface, with the following functions.

=head2 Functions

=over

=item blocksize

Returns the size (in bytes) of the block (8, in this case).

=item keysize

Returns the size (in bytes) of the key (16, in this case).

=item new($key, $rounds)

This creates a new Crypt::TEA object with the specified key. The
optional rounds parameter specifies the number of rounds of encryption
to perform, and defaults to 32.

=item encrypt($data)

Encrypts blocksize() bytes of $data and returns the corresponding
ciphertext.

=item decrypt($data)

Decrypts blocksize() bytes of $data and returns the corresponding
plaintext.

=head1 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

=over 4

=item Dave Paris

For taking the time to discuss and review the initial version of this
module, making several useful suggestions, and contributing tests.

=item Mike Blazer and Gil Cohen

For testing under Windows.

=item Tony Cook

For making the module work under Activeperl, testing on several
platforms, and suggesting that I probe for features via %Config.
