+======================
+
+This repository contails two modules:
+* `cdf-util`: a port of the support functions needed to support CdfPortValue command
+* `cdf-prop-value` : contains only the CdfPortValue command
+
+## Building
+
+To build:
+* `cd cdf-util-build; mvn package`
+
+## Usage
+
+Command: `/opt/cdf/bin/getpropvalue`
+
+`/opt/cdf/bin/getpropvalue [-x] -n property -f property-file`
+	Extract the named value from the given property-file (or full pathname[^2])
+
+`/opt/cdf/bin/getpropvalue -e method [-n property] [-s salt] -v value`
+	Encrypt the given property with the given name and value
+
+`/opt/cdf/bin/getpropvalue -u value`
+	Decrypt the given value, expressed as a triple METHOD:HEXSALT:HEXVAL
+
+`/opt/cdf/bin/setencryptedvalues` (same as `/opt/cdf/bin/getpropvalue -E`)
+	Encrypt all lines that look like ENCRYPTME.METHOD.name=value
+
+## Examples
+
+    # using config files:
+
+    # echo ENCRYPTME.AES.input=bogus | /opt/cdf/bin/setencryptedvalues > testconfig.txt
+    
+    # cat testconfig.txt
+    input.x=AES:353438323235:bf046d8a3e8b12fb678f5dec1e9d5743
+    
+    # /opt/cdf/bin/getpropvalue -x -n input -f /home/ht1659/src/cdf/testconfig.txt
+    bogus
+    
+    # No file:
+    
+	# /opt/cdf/bin/getpropvalue -e AES -v bogus
+    AES:34383638353831:0e699f0f818593e3adbc642efed20341
+    
+    # /opt/cdf/bin/getpropvalue -u AES:323937323833:8d95d8803978c4b13497b394d56a4a9c
+    bogus

+[^1]: Version 1.0, 24 Dec 2015
+
+[^2]: The property-file valued currently requires a rooted (full) pathname.
