  13. An attempt to make a one-time pad encryption system work with a key
  14. smaller than the text.
  15.  
  16. It relies on a secure Pseudo-Random Generator (random.Random in this
  17. case), and based on the seed/password/key given, it will generate a
  18. "random" key, allowing the transferring of smaller, simpler (yet more
  19. breakable), keys.
  20.  
  21. This follows the same caveats as the original One-Time Pad
  22. protocol. For example, you can only use the key once (unless you send
  23. a message/file of a different size than any others sent).
