  Quick question - in 7/9 26!, "theShredder.java", it says to NOT view the files in Windows Notepad. So, are we supposed to see file '0' like:

  "h

   

   

   

   

  n

   

   

  r

  m

  o

  ..."

   

  or "hnrmorf>("

  because opening them in Notepad++ gives the first option and opening it in Notepad gives the second, and opening it in various other text applications gives the two options.

    I've gotten as far as decrypting the encryption program... I thought that would be it. Still got a long way to go, especially cause I don't read Haskell :)

    Definately, the hardest part is probably figuring out what in hell the code is doing... well, back to work! :D

  Having now understood how the program works, I wonder if there's a proper name for the encryption method. It just feels simple yet genius enough to be a well-known cipher that came from ages ago lol.
