Microsonic Development

Hey everyone,

I will be completing some more videos in our “Teach Me To Program C++” series very soon. I currently have posted 3 lessons on youtube which were made as “trial” lessons (this is why there is such a large gap ~5 months since the last lesson). It appears that people are finding them helpful, so it seems worthwhile to continue creating these tutorials to help explain a little more about programming and development.

Furthermore, if these videos continue to have success, I will definitely be willing to start other video tutorial series on other concepts as well.

You can find the YouTube channel to find these videos here:  http://www.youtube.com/user/MicrosonicDev

If anyone has any suggestions or recommendations about these tutorials or anything else, please e-mail me (dennis [at] microsonic [dot] org) or leave comments.

Hey everyone,

Today we have released a new prototype: a file encryptor. It is currently in alpha mode, however, we will be *lightly* supporting it for anyone who uses it. It will eventually be open source, however, the source will remain private until we have a stable release.

The software is developed in C++ and has been tested with several ASCII files. Hypothetically, the encryption should work for binary formats as well, but this is unsupported and untested currently.

The features included are:

• Basic File Encryption/Decryption
• Passworded file encryption/decryption
• Command line interface
• Win32 and *nix precompiled build

You can view some more information and download the software by registering on the forums and going here (must be registered and logged in to view).

Some future functionality which we will provide includes encoded bitmap output and perhaps a graphical interface if enough interest can be generated.
