- Description:
-
- Rot-13 is a module which will Rot13-encrypt anything you type, as you type.
- (This only works under the desktop, so you can press F12 and turn it off and
- see what you're doing). Rot13-encryption only modifies alphabetical
- characters, and simply moves them 13 spaces along the alphabet. For instance,
- Hello there becomes Uryyb gurer, which in turn becomes Hello there
- again if you type Uryyb gurer for some reason.
-
- Rot13-encryption is habitually used on the Internet, to encrypt postings that
- may cause some people to be offended by them. As this module affects what you
- type in the privacy of your own home, and doesn't allow you to decrypt what
- you have typed, it is thus utterly pointless; if you don't have internet
- access, it is even less useful than it could conceivably have been.
-
- Rot13 can now also rot13-encrypt all module Help and *command text.
