Subject: Rename struct rc4_context and stream cipher send/receive functions.
X-Git-Tag: v0.4.7~14^2~7
X-Git-Url: http://git.tuebingen.mpg.de/?p=paraslash.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=e4db7671a91a7552c642acc979f0eb278f8d467f

Rename struct rc4_context and stream cipher send/receive functions.

This only changes the name structures and functions. Unfortunately,
the patch is rather large since it requires to fixup all callers
of the affected functions. However, each change is either a simple
rename or a trivial documentation adjustment.
