Summary: Bindings for the scrypt key derivation function library

Description: 

This is a set of Python_ bindings for the scrypt_ key derivation
function.

Scrypt is useful when encrypting password as it is possible to specify
a *minimum* amount of time to use when encrypting and decrypting. If,
for example, a password takes 0.05 seconds to verify, a user won't
notice the slight delay when signing in, but doing a brute force
search of several billion passwords will take a considerable amount of
time. This is in contrast to more traditional hash functions such as
MD5 or the SHA family which can be implemented extremely fast on cheap
hardware.
