+\section{Ciphers}
+
+Botan's Python interface provides a generic interface to any cipher
+supported by the library. The class \type{botan.Cipher} takes three
+arguments, all strings: first, the name of the algorith, second the
+direction (which can be either ``encrypt'' or ``decrypt''), and
+lastly, the key to use. For instance
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+    encryptor = botan.Cipher("AES-128/EAX", "encrypt", key)
+\end{verbatim}
+
+creates an object that will encrypt and authenticate messages using
+the EAX mode of operation using the AES cipher. To use this object,
+call the \function{cipher} function with two arguments - the input
+to encrypt, and the IV to use:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+    ciphertext = encryptor.cipher(input, salt)
+\end{verbatim}
