File-encryption

This program encrypts files using a key given by the user

File encryption is an interesting topic. This program uses a file that can be of any type and converts it into a ".mencpp" file. From there the original file is only restorable if you have the program and the key.

You have to call the compiled programm from the terminal, like so: ./a.out -e file.txt UhKDcdF

The layout of the input is this: ./.out [-e/-d]

Use -e to encrypt and -d to decrypt. Of course the same key has to be used to decrypt, that was used to encrypt the file.

The filename extension ".mencpp" comes from: M(atteo)en(cryption)cpp The cpp because the program is written in C++. :)
