Well, I'm certainly no expert on the subject, but I assume you mean something that will execute on a Windows pc or a Mac??? Something in Basic could run on ...

I am not trying to do anything very sinister. What brings the portable cipher program up is that several times I have been in situations where I wish I could...
I have developed a program to solve Vigenere ciphers which I believe to be faster and better than most others around. It performs well on my own tests, but of...
