Subject:   US regulations on 'hooks' for encryption

In the old days, I seem to recall that we had regulations prohibiting
the export of code that had 'hooks' showing where encryption would be
used,  if it was available.

I thought this changed back in '92,  and now we can export everything except
the encryption technology itself.

Does anyone KNOW FOR A FACT if this is true?  It would be nice to get rid
of user programs in the secure distribution and merge that stuff back into
the mainline code.
