This project isn't nearly completed yet, it's still very much in a state of concept. I had the idea to create an encryption method that heavily depended on the correct password. The principle is, the program encrypts by converting the file into hex, then adding the alphabetical value of the password to the first letter of the hex version. Then so on till the password is finished, then it goes in reverse order and so on repeating till the end of the file.

The hardest part was how to check if the password was correct. To do this I will use a string constant at the first and last line of the encrypted file. Then when decrypted, the program will check if these constants have decrypted correctly, if so then great, but if not then the user is told. This project will be finished soon hopefully and added to the site!
