A point I want to establish is that - reference the compiler - no matter ho=
w it is done and no matter what langauges are used to complete it all of th=
ese languages use 'ASCII' as their encryption domain - if I can then someho=
w access the compiler sourcecode I can customise a unique compiler for my o=
wn exclusive use by encrypting a private version that I can ahare with anot=
her entity having made a secure delivery to that person of the modified com=
piler.

Do you know how to access the compiler sourcecode?
