libtls for TLS in newLISP

Hi, all

HTTPS (and other TLS variants) is becoming more and more common. I'm seeing this as a certain pain for myself on client side (as server side is more easily solvable) (not a huge pain, I can easily use other tool in that case, but newLISP would be nice).

The LibreSSL projects provides a library called libtls, which seem to have a very clean interface for adding TLS support both for clients and servers: https://man.openbsd.org/tls_init.3 So I am wondering if this could be a relatively simple way to let newLISP talk TLS? The interface looks clean enough, at least.

Happy Easter!

Kirill

With a name like Kirill, surely you know that Easter (Pascha) is really next week. ;) Христос воскресе!
