Twofish-i586
an i586/i686 optimised Twofish implementation for Linux 2.6.
These sources are experimental. Make sure you don't depend on it's
functionality, or the case of malfunction is not a problem for you. However
they have been confirmed working by various parties, so you're not completely
wasting your time when trying out this one. You might be able to safe setup time soon, since tests showed this implementation is twice as fast as Matthew Skala's C implementation used in Linux 2.6.
Be prepared to use precompiled
code or to touch the Microsoft Assembler, masm. Since I'm most likely a stranger
to you, evolution should urge you to compile it yourself. This effort can be supported by
wine as well as
Jon Kirwan's guide on how to
extract MASM and LINK from various files provided by microsoft.com. Have a look at the top
level Makefile to get an idea of how building via masm and wine is done.

- (2003/12) I have been working on a port to gas, which is ATM far from being
complete (although it works), but due to a sustained lack of time caused by
my studies I have suspended the work. Sorry folks.
