## Writing a custom keys manager.

### decrypt3.c

    /**
     * XML Security Library example: Decrypting an encrypted file using a custom keys manager.
     *
     * Decrypts encrypted XML file using a custom files based keys manager.
     * We assume that key's name in <dsig:KeyName/> element is just
     * key's file name in the current folder.
     *
     * Usage:
     *      ./decrypt3 <xml-enc>
     *
     * Example:
     *      ./decrypt3 encrypt1-res.xml
     *      ./decrypt3 encrypt2-res.xml
     *
     * This is free software; see the Copyright file in the source
     * distribution for precise wording.
