Subject:Tales from the "_ _ _ crypt" From:Mary Jo David <MaryJo -at- writeawayent -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Mon, 08 Apr 2002 17:28:10 -0400
Anybody care to venture a guess as to which of the following is correct
when you are referring to a step that "undoes" encryption:
- Decrypting
- Unencrypting
- De-encrypting
I'm not finding it in my style guides and I'm getting hits on each when
I go out to the web...although "decrypting" appears to be the
frontrunner if I were to judge the legitimacy of some of the hits I'm
getting.
