;Sub-Tasks:
* generate the data for a One-time pad (user needs to specify a filename and length)
: The important part is to get "true random" numbers, e.g. from /dev/random
* encryption / decryption ( basically the same operation, asmuch inlike [[Rot-13]] )
: For this step, much of [[Vigenère cipher]] could be reused,<br>with the key to be read from the file containing the One-time pad.
* optional: management of One-time pads: list, mark as used, delete, etc.
: Somehow, the users needs to keep track which pad to use for which partner.
