DESCRIPTION

       The tcl::transform::otp package provides a command creating a channel transformation which
       uses externally provided one-time pads to perform encryption (on writing)  and  decryption
       (on reading).

       A related transformations in this module is tcl::transform::rot.

       The  internal  TclOO  class  implementing  the  transform  handler  is  a sub-class of the
       tcl::transform::core framework.

API

       ::tcl::transform::otp chan keychanw keychanr
              This command creates a one-time pad based encryption transformation on top  of  the
              channel chan and returns its handle.

              The  two channels keychanw and keychanr contain the one-time pads for the write and
              read directions, respectively. Their contents are reads and xored  with  the  bytes
              written to and read from the channel.
