No problem using it - it's just that the function that is in a separate library on some OS, but in libc on OpenBSD. Though it probably is worth calling out that it's not DES. > --- guide.html.orig 2015-11-24 19:46:48.000000000 +0100 > +++ guide.html 2015-11-25 08:19:34.000000000 +0100 > @@ -1149,7 +1149,7 @@ And then the update. > instead of blindly installing files. > <li>OpenBSD does NOT compress man pages. > <li>OpenBSD does NOT require <tt>-lcrypt</tt>.<br> > - DES encryption is part of the standard <tt>libc</tt>. > + A <tt>crypt</tt> function is implemented in the standard > <tt>libc</tt>.
