## Encrypting data with a dynamicaly created template.

### encrypt2.c

    /**
     * XML Security Library example: Encrypting XML file with a dynamicaly created template.
     *
     * Encrypts XML file using a dynamicaly created template file and a DES key
     * from a binary file
     *
     * Usage:
     *      ./encrypt2 <xml-doc> <des-key-file>
     *
     * Example:
     *      ./encrypt2 encrypt2-doc.xml deskey.bin > encrypt2-res.xml
     *
     * The result could be decrypted with decrypt1 example:
     *      ./decrypt1 encrypt2-res.xml deskey.bin
     *
     * This is free software; see the Copyright file in the source
     * distribution for precise wording.
