I read somewhere that the Rev password mechanism uses an encryption scheme that only works with text. I wonder why? Anyways I guess that's why it skips custom properties but encrypts scripts. Does it encrypt custom properties that are textual? I guess it would *have to* to otherwise fld text properties and control script properties would not get encrypted at all.
Hmm... maybe it's time to reexamine assumptions here. Or maybe I'm confused. I did some testing and it appears to me both textual and binary custom properties are encrypted- so there is no need to base64encode stuff and put it into another custom property.
-- create test stack set the uTextProp of this stack to "hello world" set the uBinProp of this stack to the md5digest of "hello world" -- save stack as test.rev -- look at test.rev in Emacs: -- See the following text, which shows both custom properties and their values. The value for uBinProp is mostly the same characters that are displayed in the properties inspector in Rev- so we are seeing both of the custom properties unencrypted: -- uTextProp hello world uBinProp ^∂;ª‡Ó–ìÀ"ªèZÕ√
-- now try encrypting the stack
set the password of this stack to "something"
-- save stack
-- look at test.rev in Emacs
-- See what appears to be encrypted content for both the text property
and the binary property:
