Hi, all



HTTPS (and other TLS variants) is becoming more and more common. I'm seeing this as a certain pain for myself on client side (as server side is more easily solvable) (not a huge pain, I can easily use other tool in that case, but newLISP would be nice).



The https://www.libressl.org/">LibreSSL projects provides a library called libtls, which seem to have a very clean interface for adding TLS support both for clients and servers: https://man.openbsd.org/tls_init.3">https://man.openbsd.org/tls_init.3 So I am wondering if this could be a relatively simple way to let newLISP talk TLS? The interface looks clean enough, at least.



Happy Easter!
