the 15k limit squashed my previous post,

put compress(tdata) into tCompressed
put codify(tCompressed) into tEncrypted

function codify pData

      encrypt pData using pCipher with  password pKey

      put the result into tR

      if tR is not empty

      then

            putmessage "Encode Error:" & return & tR

      end if

      return it

end codify

you can use

put the cipherNames into tCypherNameList

to get the possible encryption methods.

I used this for the client I mentioned earlier that wanted compressed and
encrypted MP3 files

Decrypt and decompress on the other side in that order.
