Hi all

What is shown, is a Siemens T100Z, plus the encryption device M190.

The encryption algorithm is very simple : read one character from the 
papertape (or keyboard), read one character from the key tape, XOR the 
characters and send the result on the line.

The crucial thing is the key tape, which must be identical to the one 
used at the other side, and of course be at the same position when the 
communication begins.

I have written a simulator for a PC, so you can send/receive information 
even if you have only one  M190.
