Encapped scripts are not cross-platform though, right? And don't our
nice tiny little scripts suddenly grow into 400k+ band-width using
monsters?
What I'd like to be able to do is encrypt a script (or part of one)
and have REBOL check for a key when it encounters such a script and
only decrypt and run it if the key is the right key for the script.
No doubt we can do this with Pro's built-in encryption, but it'd then
require those using our scripts to have paid for Pro as well.
Would encryption expand a script's size by much?
