Tk encrypted echoing-chat client and server

Hi, I originally developed this to use in a scrabble game clone, which can be played over a network. This is just the tcp connection, and I've modified it to just run as a chat server client. It use Net::EasyTCP which supports various encryption options, and will auto-negotiate the connection depending on what encryption you have available. It supports Crypt::RSA (asymmetric public key) which is the most secure, but there is a performance hit, waiting for keys to be exchanged and setup; so I've disabled it. But feel free to test it out yourself. The symmetric encryption defaults to Crypt::Rijndael (amoung others), which also needs Crypt::CBC to run. I know Rijndael has a compiled c component, so I can't say if it will run on windows. I made it simple, so it's easy to understand, and it could be customized quite abit, like different colors for each user, file transfer, and other little details. So consider this just a "proof of concept". There is a server, which contains the user-password pairs, which must be started first. Then the clients. You can start as many as you want, but Net::EasyTCP probably has limits. I can run 4 at a time, with no problem.
