Hi there,
The script seems to work great, but I am a bit confused about what the cipher text is. Is it just the hex equivalent of the test string in it's encrypted form? Below is the hex of both the encrypted and non-encrypted data. I am only using the word "compressed" for the text string and its encrypted hex equivalent for each hex character for ciphertext. It's been running a while :
My cipher text is: F1E2A816C8088054221B. So in the code it looks like this: ciphertext="\x29\xF1\xE2\xA8\x16\xC8\x08\x80\x54\x22\x1b" I have the feeling I am misinterpreting what the cipher text is. Am I on the right track or just heating up my CPU?
Thanks,
Ben

What I figured out it should look like in it's non-encrypted form:
