Known Issues / Wish List

Wish List

• [New cipher type] Add a Double Columnar Transposition cipher solver. (Thanks to Seth)

• [General Functionality] Enable the Cipher, Best Match and Top Matches text boxes to be resized. (Thanks to Viktor) These can be increased by either collapsing the ribbon or resizing the window

• [General Functionality] Show top 100 solutions in Top Matches field. (Thanks to Erich) This has been investigated but causes other issues with the layout.

• [General Functionality] Enable a solution from the Top Matches field to be added to the Best... fields with the click of a mouse. (Thanks to Erich) Added Dec 21

• [General Functionality] Allow extended character sets to be used with certain (transposition?) cipher types. (Thanks to Erich) Added in version 3.2.8, July 2024

• [Letter Order Search] Allow multiple words to be searched. (Thanks to Erich)

• [Quagmires] Allow one of the keywords to be set. (Thanks to Bret)

• [Playfair] Allow one or more characters in the key square to be fixed before brute forcing a solution. (Thanks to Polde)

• [Patristocrat/ADFGX] Enable a user to define a 25-letter alphabet when solving for the ADFGX cipher using the Patristocrat solver to allow it to be used with a dictionary keyword search. (Thanks to DBG)

• [General Functionality] Add error logging to the program. Added Dec 21.

• [General Functionality] Allow spaces to be used with cipher types such as Vigenère and Playfair to help solving short ciphers.
