Re: Encryption & Decryption script

I get bored last night and wrote a script that uses xor for encrypt-
decrypt, however it woks fine under linux 2.6.25, text and documents
are ok, but fails on compressed files *.jpg, *.pdf , etc . I didn't
test script on windows.

I did not look at the code, but xor on PHP is quite counter-intuitive.
The most significant bit is seen as a sign bit and is treated special.
Furthermore, the size of an integer is not determined. I ended up
creating my own fixed size integer classes when I had to implement a
decryption algorithm.
