;; Commentary:

;; The single entry point, `rot13-other-window', oerforms a Caesar cipher
;; encrypt/decrypt on the current buffer and displays the result in another 
;; window.  Rot13 encryption is sometimes used on USENET as a read-at-yur-
;; own-risk wrapper for material some might consider offensive, such as
;; ethnic humor.
;;
;; Written by Howard Gayle.  See case-table.el for details.
;; This hack is mainly to show off the char table stuff.

;;; Code:

(defvar rot13-display-table
  (let ((table (make-display-table))
	(i 0))
    (while (< i 26)
      (aset table (+ i ?a) (vector (+ (% (+ i 13) 26) ?a)))
      (aset table (+ i ?A) (vector (+ (% (+ i 13) 26) ?A)))
      (setq i (1+ i)))
    table)
  "Char table for rot 13 display.")

;;;###autoload
(defun rot13-other-window ()
  "Display current buffer in rot 13 in another window."
  (interactive)
  (let ((w (display-buffer (current-buffer) t)))
    (set-window-display-table w rot13-display-table)))
