I plan to write a C program to implement the RSA (Rivest-Shamir-Adleman) Public Key Cryptosystem. Because the scheme requires large block lengths for security, I require arbitrary precision arithmetic functions. I'd like to port the program to a PC eventually, therefore I ultimately need a source library of these functions. If you know of such a library in the public domain, please post/email information as to how I could get a copy. Please do not email the library. Alternatively, please inform me if you know of any robust RSA programs. I imagine such a program will soon become standard on Unix as the crypt() function implements the much-maligned DES. Jason J.
