dcrypt is a cryptography library written entirely in D and a 
little bit D inline assembler. The library is inspired by 
BouncyCastle. Most important symmetric algorithms are implemented 
but work on asymmetric cryptography has not yet started.
dcrypt is not yet ready for daily use. There's a lot of work to 
be done and I'll be glad to get some feedback or collaboration.

I sure hope it's not the API part of BC.

Now, with a name like that, will it be able _en_crypt as well? ;)

Better would be something that takes any stream of bytes and transforms 
it into readable english :)

This would be a funny tool for steganography (if its reversible) 
and could be done with huffman trees.

Sure, it'll just grab stuff from google and claim that it 
translated it from the bytes. ;)

Nice work!

For the hashes, I think you should follow the interface of the 
Phobos std.digest package, with `start`, `put` and `finish` 
methods:

http://dlang.org/phobos/std_digest_digest.html

Also, in 2.068 there will be an optional enum `blockSize` (in 
bits) for the hash algorithms, for use with the newly added 
std.digest.hmac. Your library has a runtime method for that. 
Isn't the block size always known at compile time? If you could 
change it to an enum, your library would be compatible with 
Phobos.

Maybe a similar interface should be used for the block ciphers?

Would be awesome to have similar API. Even most C API for hashes vs 
cyphers looks almost the same.
