 crypt_prog is built by the standard build procedure on Unix systems. You can also build it on Windows (with Visual Studio 2003) using the project file win_build/crypt_prog.vcproj.
 
-Creating encryption keys crypt_prog -genkey n private_keyfile public_keyfile  Create a key pair with n bits (always use 1024). Write the keys in encoded ASCII form to the indicated files.   The following commands generate the file upload and code signing key pairs. BOINC_KEY_DIR is the directory where the keys will be stored. The code signing private key should be stored only on a highly secure (e.g., a disconnected, physically secure) host.

Write it in encoded ASCII to stdout.  crypt_prog -sign_string string private_keyfile  Create a digital signature for the given string. Write it in encoded ASCII to stdout.  crypt_prog -verify file signature_file public_keyfile  Verify a signature for the given file.  crypt_prog -test_crypt private_keyfile public_keyfile  Perform an internal test, checking that encryption followed by decryption works.
