h1. PSK Secret

A preshared secret is most conveniently represented as a sequence of characters, delimited by double-quote characters ("). The sequence cannot contain a newline or double-quote. Strictly speaking, the secret is actually the sequence of bytes that is used in the file to represent the sequence of characters (excluding the delimiters).
