This package contains a number of source filters, including: . exec and sh: pipe the source file through an external command cpp: pipe the source file through the C preprocessor decrypt: example of simple (though weak!) source obfuscation tee: copy filtered source to a file (debugging aid) . A substantial amount of documentation and examples is also included.
