Joern,

Thank you very much for this link.  Starting from this changeset, I added
the ability to write ASN.1, in addition to extending the read to build a
DSAPublicKey from the encoded keys.  I just need to fix a small hiccup of my
own in parsing the BIT-STRING encoding of an INTEGER encoding, and I'll be
in the clear  :)

and thanks to everyone else that helped!  Happy turkey day.

cheers!
robert

something useful in the code that goes with it.
