* Remove documentation of UI_UTIL_read_pw*tb2024-08-241-9/+3
| | | | | | | | According to some, a fail-open password verification function is par for the course for libcrypto. Unfortunately, we have been recommending its use over similarly named EVP functions after what amounted to a coin toss a few years back. Luckily enough, no one followed that advice and we can soon remove this API for good.
* Document the deprecated functions EVP_set_pw_prompt(3) andschwarze2023-09-101-71/+86
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | EVP_get_pw_prompt(3) because some software out there still uses them. While here, also improve the description of EVP_read_pw_string(3). Delete documentation for des_read_pw(3) and des_read_pw_string(3). They couldn't be used in LibreSSL since at least 2016 because they were never in Symbols.list, and in 2022, jsing@ also removed them from <openssl/ui_compat.h>. Delete the misleading AUTHORS section. Richard Levitte did not write the original implementation of these functions, and the compatibility wrapper around the UI_process(3) API that he did write is not notable enough to be mentioned so prominently.
* mark the functions documented in des_read_pw(3) as deprecatedschwarze2020-06-191-3/+9

| | | | | | | | | resolving a dangling cross reference reported by jmc@. Sort NAME and SYNOPSIS to agree with .Dt and DESCRIPTION. Unify parameter names. Delete a sentence about an implementation detail that is no longer true. Mention the length limitation of the *_string() variants.
* Add Copyright and license; jmc@ noticed that i forgot this file.schwarze2016-12-101-30/+53
| | | | | | | | Correct the header: It's <openssl/ui_compat.h>, not <openssl/des_old.h>. Delete documentation of des_read_password(3) and des_read_2passwords(3) which no longer exist. Probably, the rest of this ought to be deleted as well...
