[REBOL] Code Security Re:
From: norsepower:uswest at: 2-Sep-2000 21:14
Although it is not "secure," I have thought about a way to make it difficult,
at least, for others to understand your code.
Using a text editor, use search and replace to change the 'words so that they
are hard to understand when you read them. For example, change...
news-server: input
open-server: reform [rejoin ["np: open news://" news-server]]
do open-server
to...
Xz8hUjKLmhT89||hg~: input
Yn876asdfGXzeyg|adlfj: reform [rejoin ["POxj724xcUYxq|x|y|q7: open news://"
Xz8hUjKLmhT89||hg~]]
do Yn876asdfGXzeyg|adlfj
Of course, keep a copy of the "readable" code for yourself, but distribute
the gobbledygook to everyone else.
Hey, maybe someone could write up a code-replacement script for this? Then
run the script on the script itself. Hmm...
