I not only misread, I was probably a bit too harsh in my original reply.
The way I read the original post, I thought the demonstration code
wouldn't work without debugging, coding, and crypto skills, which would
indeed have been a waste of time for those of us (like me) without much
crypto knowledge.  Silly me, and shame on me for failing reading
comprehension class.  My apologies to the original poster and to this
list.
