All the cipher implementations are my own. For the UI it uses Tkinter with my custom theme [minimal-tkinter](https://github.com/tywil04/minimal-tkinter). All the code is in one file, however it wouldn't be difficult to refactor it and have seperate files for each cipher.\n\n\n# Screenshots:\n![\"Zero Application\"](/zero.png)\n\n\n# Usage:\nRun `cipher.py`\n\n## Program Settings:\n#### Ceasar Cipher and Vigenere Cipher Options:\n- Keep Character Case: Keeps the character case in the output. When the setting is on: `Test -\u003e Docd` and when the setting is off: `Test -\u003e docd`.\n- Keep Unknown Characters: Any Characters that don't work in the cipher (most puncutation, etc) gets put in the ciphertext at the same position. For example, when the setting is on: `test! -\u003e docd!` and when setting is off: `test! -\u003e docd`.\n\n\n#### Vernam Cipher Options:\n - Keep Character Case: Same as Ceasar Cipher and Vigenere Cipher\n - Seperate Binary: Splits up output binary string into 8-bit blocks. When the setting is on: `test -\u003e 00000100000100110000010100000100` and when setting is off: `test -\u003e 00000100 00010011 00000101 00000100`.\n\n## Encoding/Decoding:\nTo encode with a particular cipher do the following steps:\n- Select a Cipher via the Entry that says `Select Cipher` - Make sure you choose an option that says encode if you want to encode or decode if you want to decode.\n- Enter the text you wish to encode/decode into the input that says `Enter Plaintext/Ciphertext`.\n- Enter a key into the input that says `Enter Key` - Becareful here, some ciphers only allow certain types of keys. For example, a Ceasar Cipher will only work with an integer.\n- Click Compute and the output will be displayed in the output window.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftywil04%2Fzero","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Ftywil04%2Fzero","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftywil04%2Fzero/lists"}
