INS Cipher Generator

Generate your INS cipher C programs directly inside Visual Studio Code.

How it works

Open a .c or .cpp file and type one of the supported keywords on its own line. Press Enter and the keyword is replaced with the corresponding program.

Keyword Program
CAESAR123 Caesar Cipher encryption/decryption
MONO123 Monoalphabetic Cipher encryption/decryption
PLAYFAIR123 Playfair Cipher
HILL123 Hill Cipher
MAIN123 Combined cipher program from main.txt
COLUMNAR123 Columnar Transposition Cipher
RAILFENCE123 Rail Fence Transposition Cipher

Example

Type:

CAESAR123

Press Enter. The keyword is replaced by the complete Caesar Cipher C program.

Command

You can also open the Command Palette and run:

INS Cipher Generator: Show Keywords

Then select a keyword to insert its code at the current cursor position.

Requirements

  • Visual Studio Code 1.90.0 or newer
  • A .c or .cpp editor for automatic keyword replacement

The generated programs are inserted as source code. Compiling/running the C programs still requires a C compiler such as GCC/MinGW.
