generateRSAKey(bits, implementations=['openssl', 'python'])
  `Generate an RSA key with the specified bit length.
  @type bits: int
  @param bits: Desired bit length of the new key's modulus.
  @rtype: L{tlslite.utils.RSAKey.RSAKey}
  @return: A new RSA private key.`

parseAsPublicKey(s)
  `Parse an XML or PEM-formatted public key.
  @type s: str
  @param s: A string containing an XML or PEM-encoded public or private key.
  @rtype: L{tlslite.utils.RSAKey.RSAKey}
  @return: An RSA public key.
  @raise SyntaxError: If the key is not properly formatted.`

parsePEMKey(s, private=False, public=False, passwordCallback=None, implementations=['openssl', 'python'])
  `Parse a PEM-format key.
  The PEM format is used by OpenSSL and other tools. The
  format is typically used to store both the public and private
  components of a key. For example::
  -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

  -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
  To generate a key like this with OpenSSL, run::
  openssl genrsa 2048 > key.pem
  This format also supports password-encrypted private keys. TLS
  Lite can only handle password-encrypted private keys when OpenSSL
  and M2Crypto are installed. In this case, passwordCallback will be
  invoked to query the user for the password.
  @type s: str
  @param s: A string containing a PEM-encoded public or private key.
  @type private: bool
  @param private: If True, a L{SyntaxError} will be raised if the
  private key component is not present.
  @type public: bool
  @param public: If True, the private key component (if present) will
  be discarded, so this function will always return a public key.
  @type passwordCallback: callable
  @param passwordCallback: This function will be called, with no
  arguments, if the PEM-encoded private key is password-encrypted.
  The callback should return the password string. If the password is
  incorrect, SyntaxError will be raised. If no callback is passed
  and the key is password-encrypted, a prompt will be displayed at
  the console.
  @rtype: L{tlslite.utils.RSAKey.RSAKey}
  @return: An RSA key.
  @raise SyntaxError: If the key is not properly formatted.`

parsePrivateKey(s)
  `Parse an XML or PEM-formatted private key.
  @type s: str
  @param s: A string containing an XML or PEM-encoded private key.
  @rtype: L{tlslite.utils.RSAKey.RSAKey}
  @return: An RSA private key.
  @raise SyntaxError: If the key is not properly formatted.`

parseXMLKey(s, private=False, public=False, implementations=['python'])
  `Parse an XML-format key.
  The XML format used here is specific to tlslite and cryptoIDlib. The
  format can store the public component of a key, or the public and
  private components. For example::
  <publicKey xmlns="http://trevp.net/rsa">
  <n>4a5yzB8oGNlHo866CAspAC47M4Fvx58zwK8pou...
  <e>Aw==</e>
  </publicKey>
  <privateKey xmlns="http://trevp.net/rsa">
  <n>4a5yzB8oGNlHo866CAspAC47M4Fvx58zwK8pou...
  <e>Aw==</e>

  </privateKey>
  @type s: str
  @param s: A string containing an XML public or private key.
  @type private: bool
  @param private: If True, a L{SyntaxError} will be raised if the private
  key component is not present.
  @type public: bool
  @param public: If True, the private key component (if present) will be
  discarded, so this function will always return a public key.
  @rtype: L{tlslite.utils.RSAKey.RSAKey}
  @return: An RSA key.
  @raise SyntaxError: If the key is not properly formatted.`
