"""A command-line utility for using streaming AEAD for a file.

It loads cleartext keys from disk - this is not recommended!

It requires 4 arguments (and one optional one):
  mode: either 'encrypt' or 'decrypt'
  keyset_path: name of the file with the keyset to be used for encryption or
    decryption
  input_path: name of the file with the input data to be encrypted or decrypted
  output_path: name of the file to write the ciphertext respectively plaintext
    to
  [optional] associated_data: the associated data used for encryption/decryption
    provided as a string.
