        Purpose
        -------
        This library provides simple and straightforward methods for symmetric (i.e., secret-key) and asymmetric (i.e., public-key) cryptographic encryption and decryption capabilities. The library's interface is designed for ease of use and therefore hides from users some of the flexibilities and performance trade-offs that can be leveraged via direct use of the underlying libraries.
        
        The library's name is a reference to `Boron trichloride <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boron_trichloride>`, as it is a wrapper for a limited set of capabilities found in `PyNaCl <https://pypi.org/project/PyNaCl/>` (which is itself a wrapper library for `libsodium <https://doc.libsodium.org/>`). However, it can also be an acronym for "basic cryptographic library".
        
        Package Installation and Usage
        ------------------------------
        The package is available on PyPI::
        
            python -m pip install bcl
        
        The library can be imported in the usual ways::
        
            import bcl
            from bcl import *
        
        Testing and Conventions
        -----------------------
        All unit tests are executed and their coverage is measured when using `nose <https://nose.readthedocs.io/>`_ (see ``setup.cfg`` for configution details)::
        
            nosetests
        
        Alternatively, all unit tests are included in the module itself and can be executed using `doctest <https://docs.python.org/3/library/doctest.html>`_::
        
            python bcl/bcl.py -v
        
        Style conventions are enforced using `Pylint <https://www.pylint.org/>`_::
        
            pylint bcl
