From 16feef4340172b7dbb9cba60850e78fa6388adf1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Howells Date: Tue, 24 Sep 2013 10:35:15 +0100 Subject: KEYS: Consolidate the concept of an 'index key' for key access Consolidate the concept of an 'index key' for accessing keys. The index key is the search term needed to find a key directly - basically the key type and the key description. We can add to that the description length. This will be useful when turning a keyring into an associative array rather than just a pointer block.
