No More Secrets =============== This project provides a command line tool called `nms` that recreates the famous data decryption effect seen on screen in the 1992 hacker movie Sneakers. For reference, you can see this effect at 0:35 in [this youtube video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5bAa6gFvLs&t=35). This command works on piped data. Pipe any ASCII or UTF-8 text to `nms`, and it will apply the effect to it, initially showing "encrypted" data, then starting a decryption sequence to reveal the original plaintext data. ![Screenshot](http://www.brianbarto.info/extern/images/nms/nms.gif) Also included in this project is a program called `sneakers` that recreates what we see in the above movie clip. Note that this program requires the user to select one of the menu options before it terminates. ![Screenshot](http://www.brianbarto.info/extern/images/nms/sneakers.gif) This project has no dependencies, but it does rely on ANSI/VT100 escape sequences to recreate the effect. Most modern terminal programs support these sequences so this should not be an issue for most users. If yours does not, you may need to use an alternate terminal program like xTerm.

[License](#license) Download and Install -------------------- I am flattered that few *NIX platforms have added this project to their package manager collection. If you're using one of the following systems, you can install it from the package manager. * openSUSE * Mac OS X (Via homebrew package manager: http://brew.sh/) * FreeBSD If you install form a package manager, please check that you have the latest version (`nms -v`). If not, I suggest installing from source (see below). To install this project from source, you will need to have the tools `git`, `gcc`, and `make` to download and build it. Install them from your package manager if they are not available. Once you have the necessary tools installed, follow these instructions: #### Install: ``` git clone https://github.com/bartobri/no-more-secrets.git cd ./no-more-secrets make sudo make install ``` #### Uninstall: ``` $ sudo make uninstall ``` Usage ----- `nms` works on piped data. All ASCII and UTF-8 character sets should be supported. After the initial "encrypted" characters are displayed, `nms` will wait for the user to press a key before it starts the decryption sequence. ``` ls -l / | nms ls -l / | nms -a // Set auto-decrypt flag ls -l / | nms -f green // Set foreground color to green ls -l / | nms -c // Clear screen nms -v // Display version ``` #### Command Line Options `-a` This option sets the auto-decrypt flag. This will automatically start the decryption sequence without a key press. `-f color` This option sets the foreground color of the decrypted text to the color specified. Valid options are white, yellow, black, magenta, blue, green, or red. This is blue by default. `-c` This option clears the screen prior to printing any output. Specifically, it saves the state of the terminal (all current output), and restores it once the effect is comlpeted. Note that when using this option, `nms` requires the user to press a key before restoring the terminal. `-v` Display version info.
