dbabits's XOR Description

c:\>xor XOR-encrypt stdin. Dmitry Unltd. ⌐2006 USAGE: xor 'password' or -if password is one of these: base16encode|base16decode the program encodes/decodes instead of xor -Data to be encrypted/decrypted/encoded/decoded is read from stdin and written to stdout -Diagnostic messages are written to stderr, redirect 2>/dev/null (Unix) or 2>NUL (Windows) if you don't want them -Binary files no problem. Key also could be binary, but then can't pass it as an arg EXAMPLES: encrypt: xor password test.encrypted decrypt: xor password test.decrypted check(should be no diff): diff test.original test.decrypted interactive use-type or paste your text,terminate by 'Enter' and ^Z: xor password > test.encrypted encrypt|base16encode|base16decode|decrypt->get original text: echo foo|xor pwd|xor base16encode|xor base16decode|xor pwd xor foobarfoobar < xor.pch |xor base16encode|xor base16decode|xor foobarfoobar >xor.pch.fullcircle && echo. && sum xor.pch xor.pch.fullcircle INFO: XOR-encryption is very simple and quite strong. Search Google for more on XOR encryption. The encryption Algorithm runs through each letter of the unencrypted phrase and XOR's it with one letter of the key. For example, if the unencrypted phrase was STARS, and the key was ABC, the encryption algorithm would go something like this: (S XOR A)(T XOR B)(A XOR C)(R XOR A)(S XOR B). XOR only works with two single letters at a time, which is why the algorithm needs to split both the phrase and the key Letter By Letter. Because of the nature of the algorithm, the length of the encrypted phrase is the same length as the unencrypted phrase.The beauty of XOR encryption comes in its decryption. The algorithm for encryption is the SAME as the one for decryption.
