From: Austin Obyrne Injection-Date: Wed, 04 Sep 2013 11:10:13 +0000 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=windows-1252 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Xref: news.eternal-september.org comp.lang.ada:17103 Date: 2013-09-04T04:10:13-07:00 List-Id: My present method of encrypting a file of plaintext is to open it in the Ad= aGIDE editor =96 SAVE it under a filename and then call it for encryption a= nd subsequent test decryption. 1)I can key in a file of plaintext for encryption directly to the editor an= d save it from there or, 2)I can prepare a file of plaintext for encryption in Word say and copy =91= n paste that into the editor also and then save that file into the main fol= der for calling from there for encryption. Question: Is it necessary to always go through the editor as I am doing or = am I wrong there also. Question: Can I call a file for encryption from *anywhere in my computer by= declaring the full path to the Ada-95 compiler? If so how much information must I give as the path =96 an example of a path= would be greatly appreciated like say the file is in =91My Documents=92 = =96 what would the =91path=92 look like=92. Your help would again be appreciated. You have solved my other problem re attaching ciphertext files to emails = =96 many, many thanks. Up to now I thought a file of plaintext for encryption always has to go thr= ough the AdGide editor for the compiler to 'see' it - True or false. Not very bright with navigating my way around I=92m afraid. adacrypt
