Bacon cipher

From Rosetta Code
Bacon cipher is a draft programming task. It is not yet considered ready to be promoted as a complete task, for reasons that should be found in its talk page.

Bacon's cipher is a method of steganography created by Francis Bacon. This task is to implement a program for encryption and decryption of plaintext using the simple alphabet of the Baconian cipher or some other kind of representation of this alphabet (make anything signify anything).

The Baconian alphabet:

a   AAAAA   g     AABBA   n    ABBAA   t     BAABA
b   AAAAB   h     AABBB   o    ABBAB   u-v   BAABB
c   AAABA   i-j   ABAAA   p    ABBBA   w     BABAA
d   AAABB   k     ABAAB   q    ABBBB   x     BABAB
e   AABAA   l     ABABA   r    BAAAA   y     BABBA
f   AABAB   m     ABABB   s    BAAAB   z     BABBB
  1. The Baconian alphabet may optionally be extended to encode all lower case characters individually and/or adding a few punctuation characters such as the space.
  2. It is impractical to use the original change in font for the steganography. For this task you must provide an example that uses a change in the case of successive alphabetical characters instead. Other examples for the language are encouraged to explore alternative steganographic means.
  3. Show an example plaintext message encoded and then decoded here on this page.

the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog

Fōrmulæ

Fōrmulæ programs are not textual, visualization/edition of programs is done showing/manipulating structures but not text. Moreover, there can be multiple visual representations of the same program. Even though it is possible to have textual representation —i.e. XML, JSON— they are intended for storage and transfer purposes more than visualization and edition.

Programs in Fōrmulæ are created/edited online in its website.

In this page you can see and run the program(s) related to this task and their results. You can also change either the programs or the parameters they are called with, for experimentation, but remember that these programs were created with the main purpose of showing a clear solution of the task, and they generally lack any kind of validation.

Solution

Program for encoding. It uses the extended version of the alphabeth, which can be calculated programatically, with no table.

Test case for encoding

    up, and the way Wendy knew was this. One day when she was two years old
    she was playing in a garden, and she plucked another flower and ran with
    it to her mother. I suppose she must have looked rather delightful, for
    Mrs. Darling put her hand to her heart and cried, "Oh, why can't you
    remain like this for ever!" This was all that passed between them on
    the subject, but henceforth Wendy knew that she must grow up. You always
    know after you are two. Two is the beginning of the end.

    Of course they lived at 14 [their house number on their street], and
    until Wendy came her mother was the chief one. She was a lovely lady,
    with a romantic mind and such a sweet mocking mouth. Her romantic
    mind was like the tiny boxes, one within the other, that come from the
    puzzling East, however many you discover there is always one more; and

This task is to implement a program for encryption and decryption

Bah. It isn't really practical to use typeface changes to encode
information, it is too easy to tell that there is something going
on and will attract attention. Font changes with enough regularity
to encode mesages relatively efficiently would need to happen so
often it would be obvious that there was some kind of manipulation
going on. Steganographic encryption where it is obvious that there
has been some tampering with the carrier is not going to be very
effective. Not that any of these implementations would hold up to
serious scrutiny anyway. Anyway, here's a semi-bogus implementation
that hides information in white space. The message is hidden in this
paragraph of text. Yes, really. It requires a fairly modern file
viewer to display (not display?) the hidden message, but that isn't
too unlikely any more. It may be stretching things to call this a
Bacon cipher, but I think it falls within the spirit of the task,
if not the exact definition.

Rather than explictly using 'a'="AAAAA", 'b'='AAAAB', c='AAABA", etc, this notes that "AAAAA".."BBBAA" are just another form of binary, and therefore handles them as 0..26, ie a-z plus space for any non-letters.

You could of course extend this to encode full binary, by changing the bits to 8, and accepting every input byte as-is, or use an image file instead of plaintext simply by reading it using get_text() and (from some appropriate offset) setting the pixel colours to odd/even instead of upper/lower, and start by encoding the message length in bytes, that is rather than sending half of/an obviously corrupt image file.

    Bah. It isn't really practical to use typeface changes to encode
    information, it is too easy to tell that there is something going
    on and will attract attention. Font changes with enough regularity
    to encode mesages relatively efficiently would need to happen so
    often it would be obvious that there was some kind of manipulation
    going on. Steganographic encryption where it is obvious that there
    has been some tampering with the carrier is not going to be very
    effective. Not that any of these implementations would hold up to
    serious scrutiny anyway. Anyway, here's a semi-bogus implementation
    that hides information in white space. The message is hidden in this

assigned cipher codes

This REXX version supports a full (26-letter) Roman (Latin) alphabet, plus a few punctuation symbols:
      .   (period),     ,   (comma),     ?   (question mark),     :   (colon),     !   (exclamation mark),   and blanks.

All alphabetic letters are handled as if they were in uppercase   (i.e., lowercase letters are uppercased).

0'|All children, except one, grow up. They soon know that they will grow
up, and the way Wendy knew was this. One day when she was two years old
she was playing in a garden, and she plucked another flower and ran with
it to her mother. I suppose she must have looked rather delightful, for
Mrs. Darling put her hand to her heart and cried, "Oh, why can't you
remain like this for ever!" This was all that passed between them on
the subject, but henceforth Wendy knew that she must grow up. You always
know after you are two. Two is the beginning of the end.
 
Of course they lived at 14 [their house number on their street], and
until Wendy came her mother was the chief one. She was a lovely lady,
with a romantic mind and such a sweet mocking mouth. Her romantic
mind was like the tiny boxes, one within the other, that come from the
puzzling East, however many you discover there is always one more; and
her sweet mocking mouth had one kiss on it that Wendy could never get,
though there it was, perfectly conspicuous in the right-hand corner.|
