The upshot is that I can say rather bullishly perhaps but with proof that I= can encrypt, 1) Any file of plaintext keyed in from the writable ASCII alphanumeric subs= et on a standard keyboard. 2) Any file of Unicode languages in hexadecimal coded form. 3) The program sourcecode of any of the popular programming languages inclu= ding Ada. 4) The html code of any webpage (but not images). 5) The language of any application that is compatible with the usual operat= ing systems API=92s There may be others. The cryptographic strength of my scheme is underpinned in this way. Each i= ndividual ciphertext item that represents just one single plaintext is a = =91resultant=92 vector that is comprised of the sum of two unique component= vectors that are known only to the entities. The possibility space of all= such sums (i.e. including wrong ones) is truly infinite as an indisputable= physical fact in the mathematics of the geometry of planes. There is no c= omputational method whatever known to mankind that can explicitly invert th= e ciphertext to enable decryption by any adversary because only one such pa= ir of components exists rhat is the right one, these two components as disp= lacement vectors reside in the inner recesses of the entities=92 minds only= .=20 I have found that the Ada programming language was very, very suitable to m= y needs in developing this cryptography. The cryptography, selectively chos= en to be programmed in Ada only, is copyright registered by me in the USA a= nd in the United Kingdom and I have not intention of agreeing to it being p= rogrammed in any other language except Ada. The simple caveat is this, if it is key-able by a standard key board I can = encrypt it unbreakably. The foregoing claim is made in good faith, it is early days yet and I am op= en to correction on any latent exceptions however that readers may notice b= ut frankly I think in broadest terms this puts Ada in the vanguard of the p= rogramming language / cryptography combinations in the field of design ende= avour. Ada as the encrypted sole transporter of all other programming languages ov= er the ether =96 a nice thought for Ada enthusiasts surely. I thank everybody who helped me recently. =96 Austin O=92Byrne
