Decrypto 8.5 a free program for solving cryptoquips




Decrypto 8.5 is a free program for solving cryptoquips (also known as simple substitution ciphers). It is completely automated and extremely fast.
About Decrypto

As a child, I used to race my parents to complete the cryptoquips published in our newspaper.

Occasionally, all of us would get stumped, and we wished we could find out the answer. This

program will automatically compute the answer to most cryptoquips.

Decrypto offers both dictionary and statistical attacks. In a dictionary attack, it tries to match

up words in the dictionary against words in the puzzle. This mns it can solve any puzzle that

consists of words found in the dictionary, but it also employs techniques to dl with the

occasional non-dictionary word. The statistical attack is effective on a broad range of puzzles,

and can produce a solution even if the word boundaries are not known (i.e., spaces have been

removed from the puzzle.)

FAQ/Troubleshooting

Where can I find cryptograms?

Look in your local paper. But to get you started, here are some:

I get too many solutions!

Try providing (or guessing) a few hints or using a smaller dictionary.

I don't get a solution (or I don't get any good solutions)

This mns that there are words in the puzzle that aren't in the dictionary. Try enabling partial

solutions. You can also instruct Decrypto to ignore words by adding a carat (^) to the beginning;

if the cryptogram looks like a quote, escaping the attribution (the proper name) might help.

You can also try using a larger dictionary.

How can I crte my own cryptograms?
