25 ;; This package implements a simple wrapper around "gnutls-cli" to
26 ;; make Emacs support TLS/SSL.
28 ;; Usage is the same as `open-network-stream', i.e.:
30 ;; (setq tmp (open-tls-stream "test" (current-buffer) "news.mozilla.org" 563))
33 ;; (process-send-string tmp "mode reader\n")
34 ;; 200 secnews.netscape.com Netscape-Collabra/3.52 03615 NNRP ready ...
36 ;; (process-send-string tmp "quit\n")
40 ;; To use this package as a replacement for ssl.el by William M. Perry
41 ;; <wmperry@cs.indiana.edu>, you need to evaluate the following:
