A simple VS Code extension that provides XOR encryption and decryption functionality for your documents.
Features
XOR encrypt your document content with a numeric key (0-255) or a string key
XOR decrypt previously encrypted content
Simple and fast operation
Works with any text document
Usage
Open any text document in VS Code
Press F1 or Ctrl+Shift+P to open the command palette
Type and select one of the following commands:
XOR: Encrypt/Decrypt Document With A Number - to encrypt the current document with a number(0 ~255)
XOR: Encrypt/Decrypt Document With A String - to decrypt the current document with a string
Important Notes
Always remember your encryption key! You need the same key to decrypt the content.
When using Encrypt/Decrypt With Number, it is performed byte by byte, and the file will be automatically saved.
It's recommended to backup your documents before encryption.
This is a simple XOR encryption suitable for basic document protection.
