ENCODE(), ROT13, BASE64, MIME (not included in filePro Lite)
v5.7.0 \r str = ENCODE(str,exp) \r - Converts the text found in the
string in exp by method str. The resulting str is returned.
Method str must be either "ROT13" or "BASE64".
Example:
then: a = "this is a test"
then: x = ENCODE("ROT13",a) ' x contains "guvf vf n grfg"
then: x = ENCODE("BASE64",a) ' x contains "dGhpcyBpcyBhIHRlc3Q="
The ROT13 method is a simple letter substitution cipher,
a=n, b=o, c=p, d=q, ..., m=z, n=a, ..., y=l, z=m
All numbers and symbols remain unchanged.
The BASE64 method (also known as MIME) was devoloped to allow
binary data to be transfered over media that are designed to deal
with text data.
