Did you send this patch? I did not see it in the mailing list... Anyway, I like the idea of allowing the user to store variable size data (I was storing 8-byte data). So I have sent a v3 with a more similar method, although I still use the new functions, and use the parameter data_len for knowing the amount of bytes of data, and I keep constant the input key, and return the data in another parameter. Thanks for it! Pablo
