Module

$ pip3 install sweecrypt

Import:

>>> import sweecrypt

Usage

Encrypt:

>>> sweecrypt.encrypt("hello, world!")
!?~~(:,}(>~/a

$ sweecrypt encrypt "hello, world!"
!?~~(:,}(>~/a

Decrypt:

>>> sweecrypt.decrypt("!?~~(:,}(>~/a")
hello, world!

$ sweecrypt decrypt "!?~~(:,}(>~/a"
hello, world!

Warning

Decrypting text using the CLI may cause your shell to malfunction

This can usually be fixed by using set +H before running these

With newer versions of sweecrypt (>= 1.1.0), you can shift the encryption database:

>>> sweecrypt.encrypt("hello, world", 3)
'\\!((>ba_>](#'
>>> sweecrypt.decrypt("\\!((>ba_>](#", 3)
'hello, world'

$ sweecrypt encrypt --shift 3 "hello, world"
\!((>ba_>](#
$ sweecrypt decrypt --shift 3 "\!((>ba_>](#"
hello, world

So it will output a nonsense string if shifted incorrectly.

>>> sweecrypt.decrypt("\\!((>ba_>](#")
'khoor?!zruog'

$ sweecrypt decrypt "\!((>ba_>](#"
khoor?!zruog
