+/*
+ This shows some of the details involved in a GUI application that uses
+ Botan. Actually most of the code is just dealing with GTK+, but it shows how
+ the password callback and pulse function stuff works. (See gtk_ui.cpp for the
+ acutal password callback code.)
+
+ The major points of interest (assuming what you care about is how to use
+ Botan from a GUI, and not looking at my terrible GTK code) are gtk_ui.cpp
+ and, in this file, GTK_Pulse, gen_key(), and get_key():
+
+ gtk_ui.cpp and get_key() show how to get a passphrase from a user for
+ decrypting (well, in theory, anything), but in this case, PKCS #8 private
+ keys. Which is coincidentally the only thing Botan currently uses UI
+ objects for, though that will probably change eventually. GTK_UI does
+ double duty, for getting passphrases for encryption as well (in
+ do_save_key).
+
+ gen_key() and GTK_Pulse show how to do an activity meter while doing a
+ long-term operation inside Botan. Since, typically, the only operations
+ which take a long time and can't be broken up into smaller parts are prime
+ generation/testing, that is currently where the pulse hooks are
+ called. It's certainly not the most general callback method in the world,
+ but it's general enough that it's usable without getting in the way too
+ much. The callbacks will eventually be extended to other parts of the
+ library (Pipe, maybe) where it's useful.
+
+ This program is in the public domain.

+This is an example of how to use Botan in a GUI. You need at least
+Botan 1.6.0.
+
+You'll also need GTK+ 2.x (tested with GTK+ 2.10; should work with
+most versions). Keep in mind that I was learning GTK as I was writing
+this code, so it is not exactly the best GTK code you're likely to
+see.
+
+dsa.cpp is the main GTK+ driver. It has some comments at the top which
+point out major areas of interest.
+
+gtk_ui.* implement a User_Interface object that opens up a GTK+ dialog
+box that asks the user for their passphrase. It works pretty well, the
+only major deficiency is a fixed upper limit on the size of the
+passphrase (currently 64). You may want to use this in your own code,
+assuming you use GTK. If not, it should at least provide an outline
+for writing a version for your favorite windowing system.
