+=head1 NAME
+
+SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list, SSL_set_cipher_list 
+- choose list of available SSL_CIPHERs
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/ssl.h>
+
+ int SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list(SSL_CTX *ctx, const char *str);
+ int SSL_set_cipher_list(SSL *ssl, const char *str);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list() sets the list of available ciphers for B<ctx>
+using the control string B<str>. The format of the string is described
+in L<ciphers(1)|ciphers(1)>. The list of ciphers is inherited by all
+B<ssl> objects created from B<ctx>.
+
+SSL_set_cipher_list() sets the list of ciphers only for B<ssl>.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+The control string B<str> should be universally usable and not depend
+on details of the library configuration (ciphers compiled in). Thus no
+syntax checking takes place. Items that are not recognized, because the
+corresponding ciphers are not compiled in or because they are mistyped,
+are simply ignored. Failure is only flagged if no ciphers could be collected
+at all.
+
+It should be noted, that inclusion of a cipher to be used into the list is
+a necessary condition. On the client side, the inclusion into the list is
+also sufficient. On the server side, additional restrictions apply. All ciphers
+have additional requirements. ADH ciphers don't need a certificate, but
+DH-parameters must have been set. All other ciphers need a corresponding
+certificate and key. A RSA cipher can only be chosen, when a RSA certificate is
+available, the respective is valid for DSA ciphers. Ciphers using EDH need
+a certificate and key and DH-parameters.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list() and SSL_set_cipher_list() return 1 if any cipher
+could be selected and 0 on complete failure.
