Talk:Bacon cipher

Focus?

Hi is this task good to leave draft status or does it need more focus - thinking of the intermediate form which is historically to hide the secret message in font changes, which would shift the tasks focus away from the cipher side and would be hard to show output on RC and hard to get input in differing fonts for 'round-tripping' tests. Some have displayed the binary only; others have used capitalisation changes on either random text or some story.

If you're referring to the REXX entry, I chose to use the decimal digits   1s   and   0s   (ones and zeroes)   instead of   As   and   Bs.   It may look like binary, but it tain't.   I had thought of using what the Rosetta Code task's example uses, but I went with another set of characters, just to show how faux "binary" would look like.   -- Gerard Schildberger (talk) 19:23, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
