This module (authres) is designed to provide support for RFC 5451,

http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5451,  processing in Python.

Currently it only supports header creation.  If proper (RFC compliant input
5
 
is provided, it should provide an RFC compliant header.  Some input validation
6
 
is implemented, but it is by no means complete.  API for the class is
7
 
described in the docstrings.  Between that and the RFC it should be reasonably
8
 
clear.

Header folding (and thus doctests) does not currently work with python3.

Header folding and unfolding is the responsibility of the calling application.

Between docstrings and RFC 5451 the API should be reasonably clear, but the
 
7
docstrings are still a work in progress.  The API is completely reworked from

version 0.1.

This package requires python2.6 or later (including python3).

This is completely untested on Windows, but in theory should work.
