That isn't a valid English sentence, so it is not surprising that you didn't understand it. For amusement, I will translate it: "If I were you," -- You can ignore this part. He isn't you. :) "I would probably hunt down some source code" -- He suggests that you search for DES source code. That source code is in "Applied Cryptography". "although because of the memory limitations," -- because Handhelds have less memory than a Windows PC or Unix box, "it may not be easy to port directly (from windows source or unix)." -- you may find it difficult to translate code that runs on Windows or Unix to code that runs on a handheld. Here is a short summary: Try to find some source code for the DES algorithm and modify it so it will run on your handheld. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
