So, I have Python Code that would be nice if the interpreter had a built in Crypto++ support. I am Suggesting for 3.6 to Add in this as it would be helpful for any Python Developer to do something like:

import cryptopp

And then doing the functiosn that Crpyto++ Provides for some needed and good Encryption Techniques that zlib lacks and hey the cool stuff is that Crypto++ Can be used after zlib is used so it can be beneficial to many people as it can save soem file sizes.

Also Crypto++ Seems to have some things that zlib has as well like Deflate, Adler32, CRC, etc. So that makes zlib not be the only thing to compute checksums.

Useful Links:

Hopefully something like this could be possible but I do not see why not as it was done for zlib. I have no idea if crypto++ is windows only though but it is worth a test to find out.
