Significant changes since 1.2.1:
* In addition to the scrypt command-line utility, a library "libscrypt-kdf"
can now be built and installed by passing the --enable-libscrypt-kdf option
to configure.
* On x86 CPUs which support them, RDRAND and SHA extensions are used to
provide supplemental entropy and speed up hash computations respectively.
* When estimating the amount of available RAM, scrypt ignores RLIMIT_DATA on
systems which have mmap.
* A new command "scrypt info encfile" prints information about an encrypted
file without decrypting it.

Significant changes since 1.2.0:
* A new -v option instructs scrypt to print the key derivation parameters
it has selected.
* A new --version option prints the version number of the scrypt utility.
* A new -P option make scrypt read the passphrase from standard input; this
is designed for scripts which pipe a passphrase in from elsewhere.
* A new -f option makes 'scrypt dec' ignore the amount of memory or CPU time
it thinks decrypting a file will take, and proceed anyway; this may be useful
in cases where scrypt's estimation is wrong.
* The '-M maxmem' option now accepts "humanized" inputs, e.g., "-M 1GB".
There are also a variety of less visible changes: Performance improvements
in the SHA256 routines, minor bug and compiler warning fixes, the addition
of a test suite, and some minor code reorganization.

Significant changes since 1.1.6:
* You can now specify "-" as the input file, meaning standard input.
* Lots and lots of code reorganization, including changes to the build system.
* scrypt now consults the hw.memsize sysctl on relevant platforms to figure
out how much memory is available. (This should help on OS X.)
* scrypt now detects and uses AESNI instructions for encryption/decryption.
* scrypt now detects and uses SSE2 instructions automatically (and thus there
is no longer an --enable-sse2 option to the configure script).

of the scrypt key derivation function. On modern hardware and with default
parameters, the cost of cracking the password on a file encrypted by scrypt
enc is approximately 100 billion times more than the cost of cracking the
same password on a file encrypted by openssl enc; this means that a five-
character password using scrypt is stronger than a ten-character password
using openssl
