  Description     : QuickTun is a simple VPN tunnel relying on NaCl library

QuickTun is probably the simplest VPN tunnel software ever, yet it's
very secure. It relies on the NaCl encryption library by D. J.
Bernstein.

QuickTun uses the curve25519xsalsa20poly1305 crypto-box functionality of
the NaCl library for secure public-key encryption.

And that's about all QuickTun does; encrypting and sending data. No
fancy features which would only lead to bloating the binary. In fact,
QuickTun itself has only a few hundred lines of pure C code, making it
dead simple to maintain, analyze, debug and fix.
