pz 0.6 (Dec 22, 1999)
« on: November 12, 2012, 06:11:08 PM »
Hold on, this is pretty old software. I found somewhere deep deep in the internets when I was digging around for a specific, unheard cryptography algo. I came across this thingie, though it did not provide much info for me, so I thought I'll share this piece of software, with source inside.

zlib is for compression, not encryption.  I'll look at it but I don't think there's cryptography involved.

He never said this was the program he was looking for, just one he found while looking for it.
