Macro to simply encode string

[zedd151]

Free to code, free to cause problem to my PCs/laptops and my head. 

Been there, done that. 
I was also at times, free from the obligation to go to work every now and then. I told them I had some sort of virus.    I am retired now, and have plenty of time.

I'm in bug chasing mode now

This is the name of my current life 


Masmbasic is a great project!

I'm awaiting to hearing from you.

Check the attachment ;-)

And, just for fun, build it and run it with a debugger...

Dear jj2007,
I shall check the app when I'm with Windows PC.
Quick look at the source code, I was thinking of a polymorphic virus until I saw MsgBox. 

EDIT: I've just checked your app on MacBook via Parallel Desktop.
So good! The quite long string was completely obscured!
Now I am thinking of making this feature available on other languages such as C/C++/Pascal.

Last time, accidentally I saw a thread by NoCforMe about Finite State Automaton, so I try learning automata, CFG and the like. Perhaps some day I can build for myself an expression parser in form of a DLL written completely in the assembly language. :-)

Oh, I have no doubt that you can and will do that.
It's completely within the realm of possibility.

I found the bug in RichMasm, the corrected version is online

To use the feature,
- open a source in RichMasm
- select the text you want to obscure (plain text, don't include quotes)
- go to menu Edit & Format and click on Obscure string (near the bottom)
- move the part between --- start and --- end to where it should run.
- mov ecx, esp: use as needed, but don't forget the stack correction after using it

Thank you for your effort, jj2007.
I shall trying this feature. 😀
