BinSwap

A lightweight, key-based text encoder/decoder implementing XOR encryption with binary manipulation. Designed for personal, low-security encoding tasks.

Features

• Key-based encryption using XOR cipher
• Binary bit reversal for additional obfuscation
• Dual output formats: Base-4 (Quaternary) and Hexadecimal
• Text and file operations with intuitive TUI
• Cross-platform Python implementation

How It Works

Encryption Process

1. Extend Key: Repeat encryption key to match input length
2. XOR Operation: Apply XOR cipher using extended key
3. Binary Conversion: Convert result to 8-bit binary
4. Bit Reversal: Reverse each byte for obfuscation
5. Format Encoding: Output as Base-4 or Hexadecimal

Example

Input:  "hello"
Key:    "secret"
Output: "d8e0781450" (Hexadecimal)

Requirements

Python 3.6 or higher (no external dependencies)

Security Notice

WARNING: BinSwap is intended for personal, low-security use only. Not cryptographically secure.

Technical Details

• Algorithm: XOR cipher with binary bit reversal

Remember: Always keep your encryption key safe. Without it, encoded data cannot be recovered.
