; PROGRAM ENCRYPT Version 3.0 by Dave Whitman
;
; Filter to encrypt/decrypt files.
;
; Syntax: ENCRYPT [?] [/key] [<infile] [>outfile]
;
; Reads stdin, encrypts data and writes it to stdout.
; Already encrypted files will be decrypted.
;
; An optional "key" word can be specified.
; If a key is specified, it must also be used in
; decrypting the file.
;
; The ? option prints a help message.
;
; Requires DOS 2.0, will abort under earlier versions.
;====================================================
;===============================================================
; Discussion:
;
; ENCRYPT modifies each character by XORing it with a "mask", a
; pattern of bits. XOR has the following truth table:
;
; XOR | 0 1 data bit
; ----|--------
; mask 0 | 0 1 result
; bit 1 | 1 0 of XOR
;
; Anywhere the mask has a 0 bit, the data will be unmodified. A
; 1 bit in the mask will invert the state of a data bit. For
; example:
;
; data byte: 10000001 (character "A")
; mask byte: 11110000
; XOR -----------
; 01110001 (encrypted to character "G")
;
; Aside from encryption, use XOR any time you want to flip the state
; of one or more bits. Use a mask with 1's in the positions you
; want to flip, and 0's in positions you want left alone.
;
; XOR has the interesting property of being its own inverse. If
; you XOR data with a mask, then XOR again with the same mask,
; you recover the original data. Try this example, it works!
;
; data byte: 01110001 (encrypted character "G" from above)
; mask byte: 11110000
; XOR ----------
; 10000001 (decrypted character "A")
;
; To make the encryption a little tougher to crack, ENCRYPT
; modifies the mask after each use, by performing a 1 bit rotate
; (instruction ROL, rotate left). Since the mask is 8 bits wide,
; a total of 8 different masks are generated:
;
; 11110000 initial mask
; 11100001 rotate left one bit (note wrap-around)
; 11000011 "
; 10000111 "
; 00001111 "
; 00011110 "
; 00111100 "
; 01111000 "
; 11110000 back to initial mask

;=================================================================
; Here we copy the key from the command line into a buffer for use
; during encryption. During copying, we scramble it somewhat, to
; disguise it. During testing of earlier versions, it was noted that
; the key would be repeated many times in the encrypted text. The problem
; is that the space character (20H) encrypts to the key character used,
; but shifted in case. Since spaces often come in groups, the key word
; gets copied out into the output (poor security!). Scrambling the key
; at least ensures that the key doesn't stand out like a sore thumb.
