+     "This package contains an implementation of a function 'digest()' for the
+creation of hash digests of arbitrary R objects (using the md5, sha-1,
+sha-256, crc32, xxhash and murmurhash algorithms) permitting easy comparison
+of R language objects, as well as a function 'hmac()' to create hash-based
+message authentication code.
+
+Please note that this package is not meant to be deployed for cryptographic
+purposes for which more comprehensive (and widely tested) libraries such as
+OpenSSL should be used.")
