Minor fixes

Graphical User Interface v1

How To Use

=============================================
EDGE Crypto Suite - Tcl/Tk Usage Instructions
=============================================

OPTION 1: Graphical Interface
-----------------------------
1. Ensure Tcl/Tk is installed:
   - Linux: sudo apt install tcl tk
   - macOS: brew install tcl-tk
   - Windows: Download freeWrap from https://sourceforge.net/projects/freewrap/
   - BSD: pkg install tcl tk

2. Run the graphical interface:
   freewrap app.tcl
   OR
   wish app.tcl

   NOTE:
   freeWrap supports Windows 32-bit and 64-bit, as well as Linux, and is capable
   of packaging/compiling Tcl/Tk scripts into a single static standalone binary.

OPTION 2: Command Line
----------------------
Use the edgetk binary directly:
   ./edgetk [options] FILE

OPTION 3: Integration
---------------------
The graphical interface (app.tcl) calls the edgetk binary internally.
Both must be located in the same directory.

OPTION 4: System-wide Installation
----------------------------------
1. Copy the binary to a system path:
   sudo cp edgetk /usr/local/bin/
   
2. Make the Tcl/Tk script executable:
   chmod +x app.tcl
   
3. Run from anywhere:
   ./app.tcl
   OR make a desktop shortcut

   DEBUG:
   While running the script, click the "Debug" button. This will display
   the folder(s) where the edgetk binary must be located for the script
   to recognize it correctly.
   
Supported Platforms:
- Windows 10/11 (32/64-bit)
- macOS 10.14+ (Intel & Apple Silicon)
- Linux (x86, x86_64, ARM, ARM64)
- BSD (FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD)
- Android (via Termux)
- RaspberryPi (ARMv6/v7/ARM64)

Minimum Tcl/Tk version required: 8.5 or higher

v1.5.12

Minor fixes, deprecates RSA

Note: The edgetk.ini file is an optional configuration used to define default cryptographic algorithms. Specifically, it can override the defaults for:

• Asymmetric encryption algorithm (default: RSA)
• Hash algorithm (default: SHA256)
• Preferred bulk cipher

Please use this configuration with caution. Certain choices may affect the program's behavior. For example, setting the default hash to SHA3 can interfere with RSA signatures, as RSA requires a SHA2-family hash or RIPEMD160 to function correctly. In this case, you must pass the correct hash via flag -md.

If anything changes unexpectedly during execution, or if you're unsure about the configuration, you can safely delete the edgetk.ini file. The code will fall back to its internal defaults, and the program will remain intact.
