I may need to put some passwords into a program. Does anybody know of source for public encryption methods? It would be nice if it were in C. It doesn't need to be fool-proof, it does need to be able to handle some type of storage on the hard disk which needs to be unreadable to others. Thanks, John M.A. Roy (714) 856-5039 ICS Dept., Univ.
