I added a feature similar to “here files” to translate.py. It’s something I already did in xor-kpa.py.
In stead of using an input filename, the content can also be passed in the argument. To achieve this, precede the text with character #.
If the text to pass via the argument contains control characters or non-printable characters, hexadecimal (#h#) or base64 (#b#) can be used.
Example:
translate.py #h#89B5B4AEFDB4AEFDBCFDAEB8BEAFB8A9FC “byte ^0xDD”
Output:
This is a secret!
