ecarnevale / codes.rb
Created February 13, 2009 13:29 — forked from jamis/codes.rb
# Generates a series of substitution cipher puzzles. The messages to
# "encrypt" are take from a text file passed on the command-line,
# where each message is on one line.
#
# The output is a PDF, "codes.pdf".
#
# Forked from Jamis Buck's http://gist.github.com/58141
# changed to show code as numbers instead of letters and a hint of solution instead of the key.
