- Description:
- This file contains the routines used to encrypt and decrypt
- data in an archive. The encryption method is nothing fancy,
- being just a routine XOR, but it is used on the packed data,
- and uses a variable length key. The end result is something
- that is in theory crackable, but I'd hate to try it. It should
- be more than sufficient for casual use.
