    Oh shit. Well, I made a mistake. This was meant for Stefan Claas. Not
    sure why I responded to you. Well, I just wanted to show some "proof"
    that I have been sidetracked. But, actually doing something cool, well
    to me anyway... Sorry RH.

    Hi Chris, I will no longer respond to your messages until you have tested
    my minicrypt, the Windows version.

    Is the base encryption using chacha20poly1305?

    It is hybrid, like PGP. You have to create a keypair which is Ed25519 and
    will be converted to X25519 and finally encrypted with XChaCha20+poly1305.

    You can encrypt a message to me with my pub key:

    -----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----
    wP/uWjblgesQ9gsoMbPNuVXS5+9oDdKCqNQ62LhLNXo=
    -----END PUBLIC KEY-----

    Simply copy/paste and then import as stefan.pem
