This module implements the interface to RSA's MD5 message digest
algorithm (see also the file `md5.doc'). It's use is very
straightforward: use the function md5 to create an
md5-object. You can now ``feed'' this object with arbitrary
strings.
At any time you can ask the ``final'' digest of the object. Internally,
a temorary copy of the object is made and the digest is computed and
returned. Because of the copy, the digest operation is not desctructive
for the object. Before a more exact description of the use, a small
example: to obtain the digest of the string 'abc', use ...

An md5-object has the following methods:
