+SEED vector creation
+=====================
+
+This page documents the code that was used to generate the SEED CFB and OFB
+test vectors as well as the code used to verify them against another
+implementation. For SEED the vectors were generated using OpenSSL and verified
+with `Botan`_.
+
+Creation
+--------
+
+``cryptography`` was modified to support SEED in CFB and OFB modes. Then
+the following python script was run to generate the vector files.
+
+.. literalinclude:: /development/custom-vectors/seed/generate_seed.py
+
+Download link: :download:`generate_seed.py </development/custom-vectors/seed/generate_seed.py>`
+
+
+Verification
+------------
+
+The following python code was used to verify the vectors using the `Botan`_
+project's Python bindings.
+
+.. literalinclude:: /development/custom-vectors/seed/verify_seed.py
