</div>That depends on what you want to do next. m.digest() returns the digest<br>
in binary form, ready to be used for further manipulation, such as<br>
having it signed. m.hexdigest() returns it in a form suitable for<br>
inclusion in a text transmission, such as email.<br>

</div>PKCS #1 has not been integrated into trunk yet. There is a patch<br>
available, though, here: <a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/pycrypto/+bug/502291" target="_blank">https://bugs.launchpad.net/pycrypto/+bug/502291</a><br>
