[![Haskell](http://b.repl.ca/v1/language-haskell-lightgrey.png)](http://haskell.org)
Cryptonite is a haskell repository of cryptographic primitives. Each crypto
algorithm have specificities, that are hard to wrap in common APIs and types,
so instead of trying to provide a common ground for algorithms that wouldn't
allow to provide all different usage or a really complicated system, this just
provide a non-consistant low-level API.

If you have no idea what're you doing, please do not use this directly, rely on
higher level protocols or higher level implementation.

On OSX <= 10.7, the system compiler doesn't understand the '-maes' option, and
with the lack of autodetection feature builtin in .cabal file, it is left on
the user to disable the aesni. See the [Disabling AESNI] section
Disabling AESNI
---------------
It may be useful to disable AESNI (for building, testing or runtime purpose), and one can do that with the
*support_aesni* flag.
