💖 SASL::SCRAM 💖

okay so bestie, quick vibe check: this page lives in the SASL manual section (Simple Authentication and Security Layer, iconic behavior), it's a 3tcl manpage, and yes the header is literally spelled SA...RAM(3tcl) — we don't ask, we just accept the mystery. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

SASL::SCRAM — an implementation of the SASL SCRAM mechanism for Tcl, no cap 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

package require Tcl 8.5 9

package require SASL::SCRAM ?0.2?

like… that's it. that's the whole summoning ritual. 💅

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so this package is the one that hands you the SCRAM authentication mechanism for the Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL). that's the whole job description. she does one thing and she ate. 🔥

now listen — for the actual details, go read the docs for package sasl. this page is not gonna hold your hand through all of it, it's giving "the rest is in the group chat." 😭
