.. Set up some character translations and predefined strings. \*(-- will
give an unbreakable dash, \*(PI will give pi, \*(L" will give a left
double quote, and \*(R" will give a right double quote. | will give a
real vertical bar. \*(C+ will give a nicer C++. Capital omega is used
to do unbreakable dashes and therefore won't be available. \*(C` and
\*(C' expand to `' in nroff, nothing in troff, for use with C<>

If the F register is turned on, we'll generate index entries on stderr
for titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.Sh), items (.Ip), and
index entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process
the output yourself in some meaningful fashion.

For nroff, turn off justification. Always turn off hyphenation; it
makes way too many mistakes in technical documents.

"NAME"
d2i_RSAPublicKey, i2d_RSAPublicKey, d2i_RSAPrivateKey, i2d_RSAPrivateKey, d2i_RSA_PUBKEY, i2d_RSA_PUBKEY, i2d_Netscape_RSA, d2i_Netscape_RSA - \s-1RSA\s0 public and private key encoding functions.
"SYNOPSIS"

"DESCRIPTION"
Header "DESCRIPTION" \fId2i_RSAPublicKey() and i2d_RSAPublicKey() decode and encode a PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey structure.

\fId2i_RSA_PUKEY() and i2d_RSA_PUKEY() decode and encode an \s-1RSA\s0 public key using a SubjectPublicKeyInfo (certificate public key) structure.

\fId2i_RSAPrivateKey(), i2d_RSAPrivateKey() decode and encode a PKCS#1 RSAPrivateKey structure.

\fId2i_Netscape_RSA(), i2d_Netscape_RSA() decode and encode an \s-1RSA\s0 private key in \s-1NET\s0 format.

The usage of all of these functions is similar to the d2i_X509() and \fIi2d_X509() described in the d2i_X509(3) manual page.

"NOTES"
Header "NOTES" The \s-1RSA\s0 structure passed to the private key encoding functions should have all the PKCS#1 private key components present.

The data encoded by the private key functions is unencrypted and therefore offers no private key security.

The \s-1NET\s0 format functions are present to provide compatibility with certain very old software. This format has some severe security weaknesses and should be avoided if possible.
