[openssl-users] How to sort cipher list by ephemeral/non-ephemeral?

[Jeffrey Walton]

I prefer to use a cipher list like "HIGH:!aNULL:!RC4:!MD5". I prefer
it because its fairly easy to parse and understand. Its also easy to
teach to developers.

I want the resulting ciphers sorted with the ephemeral suites at the
head of the list.

How does one sort the list with ephemeral suites at the top of the list?

If 'openssl ciphers' is stable with respect to its output, then the
order is (is this @strength?):

# openssl ciphers -v 'HIGH:!aNULL:!MD5:!RC4:!PSK:!SRP:!KRB5' | cut -f 1 -d ' '
