Of course,= 7-bit ASCII would be unusable when dealing with videos, j-pegs, even Word = documents. What is the problem with simply reading binary disk blocks as 8-= bit text using Sequential_IO, since Austin wants to use the attributes 'Pos= and 'Val on the data stream? -- Eryndlia Mavourneen (KK1T) Like all cryptography since the 1970's this crypto is is exclusively 'numbe= r-theoretic'. Binary base is essential to the current block ciphers of NSA but is a cul-d= e-sac for any further resaerach. Your admonition to increase the scope to cover all of Latin_1 has been impl= emented (C++ only uses ASCII as far as I can tell but I am open to correcti= on here). My stuff uses the decimal base and the geometry of planes in three dimensio= ns as the encryption environment. The scope is limiltless for the everyday = applications that all walks of life require. GET and PUT together with 'Pos and 'Val kick-start the computation of the c= iphertext for each character read in which is then completed in each single= pass of the main loop i.e. read in, encrypt, written out as ciphertext end= -to-end in one throw straight. The plaintext for encryption is read in character by character from text fi= les and is limited only by the computer capacity to store the growing array= s. This helps to make Ada a perfect language for cryptography. =20 - There is no hard sell about this - just plain fact. adacrypt
