Hello, the bindings include generic constructors for a high level hash function and symmetric cipher interface. You can specify any algorithm Botan supports in symbolic form.
I did not include bindings for the low-level ECB-only cipher interface (seems of limited use from a high-level language) nor for format-preserving encryption (difficult to formulate an efficient binding).
