Which Crypto Library?

Hi I need some encryption done in my Python 2.5 application. I wonder what's the most recommended library? I've found M2crypto and some OpenSSL wrappers and Python Cryptography Toolkit and some others. No surprise I'm confused :-) What's the most often used library for crypto? For now I need a s

guess file type in python

Is there any way to guess the file type using python? thanks mark For example in unix: file code.py code.py: a python script text executable file Eccentric.gif Eccentric.gif: GIF image data, version 89a, 237 x 277 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
