Tentacle-Coder

The Tentacle-Coder has been written for the "Ferkeltaschen" from de.alt.anime so they can exchange files in a suitable format. You can encode binary data into plain ASCII format, but the files get very large. Because a randomizer is used, the encoded file will always be different, but the decoding works nevertheless.
