: If you're referring to the REXX entry, I chose to use the decimal digits '''1'''s and '''0'''s (ones and zeroes) instead of '''A'''s and '''B'''s. It may look like binary, but it tain't. I had thought of using what the Rosetta Code task's example uses, but I went with another set of characters, just to show how faux "binary" would look like. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 19:23, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
: I could see standardizing some aspects of the task. Perhaps requiring a specific text (either to encrypt or to hold the encrypted text or both), for example. Though I could also see it being more interesting with variation being either allowed or specified. But the font aspect is something of a problem - if you seriously wanted font support, you should first implement a rosetta code task which involves multiple fonts. But since there's no file upload capability, the only way to see correctness would be to render to html or wiki-markup. So that might be a dead-end. So perhaps for this task we should just standardize on using letter case in place of font? --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] ([[User talk:Rdm|talk]]) 19:36, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
