Name

crypt — run Unix crypt() function on input data

DESCRIPTION

The filter calls Perl crypt function to encrypt input data.

EXAMPLES

Example: Filter example with random salt

The encrypted string should be different each time you run the code because the salt is random.
Encrypted string TEST with random salt is: 
[filter crypt]TEST[/filter].

Example: Filter example with hand-specified salt

The encrypted string should be the same each time you run the code because the salt does not change.
Encrypted string TEST with salt of AB is: 
[filter crypt.AB]TEST[/filter].
