AES and Twofish are both block ciphers. Neither are hasing algorithms, and you'll need a PBKDF or some other construction to derive a key for either, no?

Salsa is a stream cipher.

Right. thanks for the update. My note should have been consulted as you being correct. Hate my memory nowadays. Need to consult some more notes before speaking.
