     RIPEMD-160 is a cryptographic hash function with a 160 bit
     output.

     RIPEMD160() computes the RIPEMD-160 message digest of the nnnn
     bytes at dddd and places it in mmmmdddd (which must have space for
     RIPEMD160_DIGEST_LENGTH == 20 bytes of output). If mmmmdddd is
     NULL, the digest is placed in a static array.

     The following functions may be used if the message is not
     completely stored in memory:

     RIPEMD160_Init() initializes a RRRRIIIIPPPPEEEEMMMMDDDD111166660000_CCCCTTTTXXXX structure.

     RIPEMD160_Update() can be called repeatedly with chunks of
     the message to be hashed (lllleeeennnn bytes at ddddaaaattttaaaa).

     RIPEMD160_Final() places the message digest in mmmmdddd, which
     must have space for RIPEMD160_DIGEST_LENGTH == 20 bytes of
     output, and erases the RRRRIIIIPPPPEEEEMMMMDDDD111166660000_CCCCTTTTXXXX.

     Applications should use the higher level functions
     EVP_DigestInit(3) etc. instead of calling the hash functions
     directly.

     RIPEMD160() returns a pointer to the hash value.

     RIPEMD160_Init(), RIPEMD160_Update() and RIPEMD160_Final()
     return 1 for success, 0 otherwise.
