Jacob's instructions:
Using CipherHide requires that you install two extra Perl modules first: Digest::SHA1 and Digest::HMAC. These can be freely obtained from http://search.cpan.org. Follow the documentation and installation instructions that come with the modules. You will most likely need to type
perl Makefile.PL
at a shell prompt, but read the relevant documentation for specific instructions and other possible issues, especially if you are not running Mac OS X or Linux.
make
make test
make install
After the installation has finished, change to whatever directory the CipherHide files are in, and type CipherHide at the Matlab prompt to launch the program. To use the program, select an input and output file, type a passphrase, and change the options if you want to (refer to the built-in documentation for more detailed instructions).
Please note: the FastBin2Dec function is a modified version of Matlab's own bin2dec function, which is copyrighted by The MathWorks, Inc. Similarly, the Arcfour function is an implementation of the ARCFOUR algorithm, and while this implementation is my copyrighted work, I do not own the original algorithm. I believe that both of these files in my project constitute Fair Use under United States law, however. See the file LICENSE that accompanies the other CipherHide files for full copyright information for the CipherHide files (with the exception of the FastBin2Dec function). Please also note that I make no claims about the degree of security that CipherHide actually offers, and I am not responsible for any use of the software. Please abide by all relevant laws, including those regarding cryptography exports.
