BinHex CryPactor

Working on a computer is not all fun and games. Behind every visually appealing thing there’s an abundance of code, and this can come under various formats. Some of the most basic like hexadecimal and binary can be found in any file, and can also serve as encryption modes. You can easily process such code with the help of applications like BinHex CryPactor.

One of the first things you need to know is that the application is portable, so you don’t have to go through a setup process to make it work. This also means that registry entries are not affected on the target computer, and you can just deploy the program on a thumb drive in case you plan on using it on different computers.

As far as the interface is concerned, you find that it’s well-organized, with several panels making your work pretty comfortable. There’s an input section where all your text goes, an output box, as well as the management table in which you need to specify conversion parameters.

Note, however, that the application can feel a little confusing to beginners, as the rules of conversion must be manually created, depending on what type of code you need or want to process. The application is capable of handling codes like Ansi, HEX, and binary.

Once you add text you need to add rows which define the conversion. On the bright side of things, you can use the thorough documentation to learn the required characters for particular types of conversion. What’s more, you can use Regular Expressions in the Options section when adding or editing existing rows for more complex character manipulation.

Import is only possible for already encrypted content. This means that your work can be saved, and you have the possibility to pack it in encodings like ANSI, UTF-8, and UTF-16.

All things considered, we can state that BinHex CryPactor is a pretty complex code conversion application. Some degree of effort is required on your behalf to manage the rules of conversion, but the thorough documentation gets you up and running in no time.
