emacs-gnutls: Overview

 
 1 Overview
 **********
 
 The GnuTLS library is an optional add-on for Emacs.  Through it, any
 Emacs Lisp program can establish encrypted network connections that use
 “Secure Socket Layer” (SSL) and “Transport Layer Security” (TLS)
 protocols.  The process of using SSL and TLS in establishing connections
 is as automated and transparent as possible.
 
    The user has only a few customization options currently: the log
 level, priority string, trustfile list, and the minimum number of bits
 to be used in Diffie-Hellman key exchange.  Rumors that every Emacs
 library requires at least 83 customizable variables are thus proven
 false.
