Excuse my asking, but what kind of security do you hope to achieve with this?
I don't mind. I would simply like to make a binary more opaque to snoopers. A binary may contain server names, registry keys, configuration settings, etc... Anything that's string-based could pique someone's curiosity. I realize it wouldn't truly secure a program to have strings be obfuscated, but if a first-glance at the binary contains no visible text, then the snooper may not even bother going on to the next level of snooping. -Sid
