Here is one for all the bored folks to chew on

Ok, I encrypted (poorly) a phrase, lets see who can crack it first

>m\^f ocdn da tjp m`\ggt c\q` ijocdib ]`oo`m oj _j


first one to get it wins....well....nothing. ;)

It's a substitution cypher, but there is not enough text to do frequency calculations.

I.E., I can't be arsed.

I'm not going to go any farther... too easy :p

like I said it was encrypted poorly ;)
What's funny is there's probably a couple people here trying really hard to figure out how to decipher it... one or 2 might even be writing their own program. ;)

It took only a few lines of JavaScript to encrypt it in the first place ;)

$string = '>m\^f ocdn da tjp m`\ggt c\q` ijocdib ]`oo`m oj _j';
@chars = split //, $string;
foreach $char(@chars){
unless($char eq ' '){print chr(((ord $char)+5))}
else{print $char}
}
print "\n";

It's a lot easier than scanning forward 5 entries in a table for each letter.

that was a really lame attempt at cryptography,

Try mine: cr/B9dDPk5xrk

hint: think crypt.h ;)

You broke my super impossible code :Q How did you ever figure it out?!? Can I sue you under the DCMA for hacking me or something? ;)
