2 * Trivially encode strings to protect them from innocent eyes (i.e.,
3 * inadvertent password compromises, like a network administrator
4 * who's watching packets for legitimate reasons and accidentally sees
5 * the password protocol go by).
6 *
7 * This is NOT secure encryption.
9 * It would be tempting to encode the password according to username
10 * and repository, so that the same password would encode to a
11 * different string when used with different usernames and/or
12 * repositories. However, then users would not be able to cut and
13 * paste passwords around. They're not supposed to anyway, but we all
14 * know they will, and there's no reason to make it harder for them if
15 * we're not trying to provide real security anyway.

35 /* Map characters to each other randomly and symmetrically, A <--> B.
37 * We divide the ASCII character set into 3 domains: control chars (0
38 * thru 31), printing chars (32 through 126), and "meta"-chars (127
39 * through 255). The control chars map _to_ themselves, the printing
40 * chars map _among_ themselves, and the meta chars map _among_
41 * themselves. Why is this thus?
43 * No character in any of these domains maps to a character in another
44 * domain, because I'm not sure what characters are valid in
45 * passwords, or what tools people are likely to use to cut and paste
46 * them. It seems prudent not to introduce control or meta chars,
47 * unless the user introduced them first. And having the control
48 * chars all map to themselves insures that newline and
49 * carriage-return are safely handled.
