Document File Protector
-----------------------
The Basic principle of DFP is for ULTIMATE FILE PROTECTION, which as I see,
and many others that DFP is un-hackable (anyone who claims to be able to
hack a ASCII file after a considerable protection thrown at it using DFP is
a SuperPerson, because for those who don't know DFP(!) won't appreciate the
coding that is changed to their document after DFP gets a "byte" into it.
Basically, by coding it with one number an un-authorised person would have
a 1 in 255 chance of getting the code right.
By coding twice or more (upto 40 times on the full version!) can get a
hacking possibility of TRILLIONS, which is almost possible. Even if 40
times isn't enough, simply by decrypting it AGAIN you will increase the
improbability many times over. You want protection, you buy the FULL
version for only £5 pound (sterling) and DFP will make sure that NOBODY
looks at anything that they are not supposed to.
Unlike the old version, which many of you probably haven't got, because
this got released a few weeks after the first version, this doesn't need
that last to first method which probably confused a few of you because of
the awkwardness, well now thanks to my generousity, you simply type in
whatever you wish.
For first time users, simply remember that on screen instructions and use
of this program have been made as simple as possible. Encrypt means to code
your document, Decrypt means to de-code your document.
Version 2.00
------------
Copyright (c) C D Harrison 1993
-------------------------------
Wellcome to DFP v2, this version, almost a complete re-write of the first
version has improved user parser options and a limitation on codes allotted
to the user - you.
In the first version you were allowed to have upto 20 numbers, each
containing a number of 1-255.
In this version, you are allowed upto 3 numbers OR letters each containing
a number of 1-255. Also, you could enter the numbers or letters in the
original order whether encrypting or decrypting, making it easier for you
to use. However, because of the limitation of 3 numbers or characters, this
function doesn't really serve its use.
Also, there is a minor bug in the Password part of the program, for some
strange reason (not to me though!) when the password system is run it codes
and decodes your file correctly except it cuts the letter 'e' in some very
weird places.
So, the only way to really take advantage of DFP v2's uses is to register
for a measly £5 pound (sterling) and receive a version that allows you upto
40 numbers or characters which is one real mean lean protection system.
e.g.
IF you had the full version, this is as follows:-
Encrypt as password : Abracadabra
Decrypt as password : Abracadabra
The old version would have been (if passwords were viable)
Encrypt as password : Abracadabra
Decrypt as password : arbadacarbA
As you may have noticed, this makes this program easier for you to use
because you can have a few words in the new version, and simply typing them
in as they come is easier than the last to first method.
*************
Compatibility
*************
This program has been written as compatibility error free as possible.
This program was written using HiSoft 1 on an Amiga A500 plus. It has been
test on a standard A500 with 1/2 meg expanded.
It has been compiled so that 512k users may take advantage.
Workbench 3 SHOULD work, since using a A500 plus, workbench works, so Wb3
should work.
Speed of the program will increase, if the speed of the computer is
increased. A A1200 should work at between 150% - 500% quicker than the
7.1Mhz of the A500, A500plus and A600.
DFP will make use of the RAM installed, ram usage depends on the size of
the file to be used. Normal file size depends on user, but for a 512k user,
a 200-300 kilobyte file will work properly. 1 meg and 2 meg users should
find file size can increase dramatically.
DFP will manipulate files of user output. In other words, Database,
Spreadsheets, Word Processor, in fact almost any text output program
available. It will work on SOME games and executable files even although
DFP's main function is to encrypt text files.
