Nope. :(( :-D
If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler. -- Alfonso the Wise, 13th Century King of Castile.
This is going on my arrogant assumptions. You may have a superb reason why I'm completely wrong. -- Iain ClarkeIt was a fairly ambitious undertaking, defying reality like that.
What has the future in store for this strange being, born of a breath, of perishable tissue, yet Immortal, with his powers fearful and Divine? What magic will be wrought by him in the end? What is to be his greatest deed, his crowning achievement?

We're waiting for his revolutionary Data Hiding Algorithm
Although I too seriously doubt this, I am not one for deliberately calling out someone in a new thread. Certainly if they step on the pillory I'll flog a bit also, that's human nature. But I generally don't try to drag them back to the pillory for more ridicule. I hope, that he has pulled up some of the hex editors, and other editors and realized that the idea is simple: it is too simple. Hiding data from the least qualified threat (the person who only knows how to use notepad), is not a very effective algorithm. Perhaps he has thrown out the algorithm and is trying for another. Who knows? Though he has given me some ideas, I may have to try it when I get the time. But mine would definitely change the text. Don't worry, no magic or infinite compression here, my wiccan skills are lacking, and outside of sitting on the data, I have only traditional ways of squashing bits down. :laugh:

I'm glad this new thread was started, otherwise I would have missed the original having been away for a few weeks - what a laugh!! That guy was certainly persistent. The only way I can think of hiding data in text is to use a key/index of some sort - take the first letter of the third word, fourth letter of the thirteenth word etc but this would require either the key to decode it or for the text to be specifically arranged so that certain letters are in certain positions, neither of which is practical or secure. If that is the method then it certainly isn't new - didn't Napoleon or some such character use the same method?
