-     "A python wrapper of OpenBSD's Blowfish password hashing code.  This
-system hashes passwords using a version of Bruce Schneier's Blowfish block
-cipher with modifications designed to raise the cost of off-line password
-cracking and frustrate fast hardware implementation.  The computation cost of
-the algorithm is parametrised, so it can be increased as computers get faster.
-The intent is to make a compromise of a password database less likely to
-result in an attacker gaining knowledge of the plaintext passwords (e.g. using
-John the Ripper).")
