Let there be meaning

[ReneZ]

On a more fundamental point, I am concerned that a "stateful one to many cipher" may be helpful when trying to decode text, but will not be able to explain how any plain text, when encoded using this, will have the properties that Marco Ponzi already pointed out.

No one claimed that it, alone, explains the properties that MarcoP You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view..

I did not think that this was claimed. I rather thought that it had been ignored (or not fully understood - no bad intentions assumed).

I believe that the cipher method of Leonell Strong could be considered an example of such a cipher, though it certainly includes additional (and unrealistic) complications.

A criticism of this method included that it was not considered realistic that many different plaintext words would, by chance, result in the same cipher text word (e.g. Eva chedy).
