Encryption and decryption of files
<![CDATA[
In main function we declare required variable.
printf(" enter choice
1)encode
2)view ecoded file
3)
decode
4)view decoced file
5)exit ------");
// this is to print the main menu
scanf("%d",&ch); // entering
of choice
while(ch!=5) // until
choice is exit
{
if(ch==1) //if
choice is to encrypt
{
scanf("%s",name); // accept file
name
scanf("%c",&ff); //accept the
choice of change
// the file position or not
if(ff=='c'||ff=='C')
{strcpy(encri,ruf);scanf("%s",encri);} // so as to change enter file path
cscanf("%s",pass); // enter
password
l=strlen(pass); // l
=string length of password

file to be encrypted

to where to be
//
encrypted
while(!feof(st)) // until end
