(PD) C obfuscator/shrouder

[David Loewenstern]

There have been many respondents to my request for a C
obfuscator/shrouder.  Most have pointed to Gimpel software or
other software houses.  Two respondents were kind enough to volunteer
their products to the public domain:

Russ Fish: fish at kzin.utah.edu has a good shrouder which generates 
completely unreadable but compilable code. Russ includes his source
code with the package.

Tris Orendorff: dciem!alzabo!tris has an excellent and well-documented
shrouder which scans your include files for keywords and
function names which are not to be shrouded, etc.  However, Tris has 
only released the IBM-PC binaries so far.  Tris's shrouder renames 
variables, type names, and variable names, but does not remove whitespace,
so the output code is a bit easier to read than Russ's, though I found
it adequate for my needs.

These opinions are shareware.  If you like the product,
please send your two cents to:
