NAME
       shishi_n_fold - API function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <shishi.h>

       int shishi_n_fold(Shishi * handle, const char * in, size_t inlen, char * out, size_t outlen);

ARGUMENTS
       Shishi * handle
		   shishi handle as allocated by shishi_init().

       const char * in
		   input array with data to decrypt.

       size_t inlen
		   size of input array with data to decrypt ("M").

       char * out  output array with decrypted data.

       size_t outlen
		   size of output array ("N").

DESCRIPTION
       Fold  data  into a fixed length output array, with the intent to give each input bit approximately equal weight in determining the value of
       each output bit.

       The  algorithm  is  from   "A   Better	Key   Schedule	 For   DES-like   Ciphers"   by   Uri	Blumenthal   and   Steven   M.	 Bellovin,
       http://www.research.att.com/~smb/papers/ides.pdf, although the sample vectors provided by the paper are incorrect.

RETURN VALUE
       Returns SHISHI_OK iff successful.
