i didn't choose the correct word for the screenshot.  but i hope you get the idea.  there are many examples of "kerning."

incredibly, this is done by "figlet."  the famous program that does "word banners".

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FIGlet
https://www.figlet.org/

some "black magic" in c programming.  was required to make it possible.

it was kind of necessary.  before it was possible to have a "terminal" screen.  or a ms-dos-like screen.  of more than 80 characters per line.  so it was great to have one lengthy word fit in one line.  usually somebody's nickname on chat or something like that.

Ok I have fixed up The Crypt:
1. You can now paste the encrypted message anywhere because along with going to the label it also goes into the _Clipboard, so you can paste right into the Decode text box without copy by hand. BTW A Very Nice Feature of InForm! 

2. This code is much harder to break! Not simple letter swapping at all, in fact it's coded into numbers.

3. You can now seed the randomizer with your own secret Numeric Key, with any Long Integer.

update: 4. No issues with font problems (space or 2?) because the coded message is in numbers now.

   

Update: A coded message under 1026 Numeric Key for YOU!
Code: (Select All)
236  874  603  273  913  156  424  724  710  471  263  175  471  767  70  388  137  76  69  318  207  132  481  689  287  20  550  471  297  331  802  883


The zip is setup to work without your own Inform app.

I added a coded message for YOU! in the above post Wink

Oh hey! if you don't know what the Numeric Key is try counting the number of numbers and squaring that for the key, it's what bplus would do Wink
