I guess that You think that in password field in all encryption algorithms on TextOpus, You can only type raw password. In fact, it’s a bit more - it supports special commands that let You type password in as Base64 or hexadecimally.

For example, there is !hex directive. You can use password “AAA”, but You can also use “!hex414141″ and this will mean the same! All directives look this way - ! + 3-letter-id.

Here’s a list of all currently supported directives:

• !hex - after this directive, type in some Hex numbers like 41A5F5.
• !b64 - this lets You use text encoded by Base64 as password.
• !md5 - MD5 hash is used as password.
• !md4 - MD4hash is used as password.
• !sh1 - SHA1 hash is used as password.
• !sh2 - SHA-256 hash is used as password.
• !sh3 - SHA-384 hash is used as password.
• !sh5 - SHA-512 hash is used as password.
• !adl - Adler hash is used as password.
• !gst - GOST hash is used as password.
• !hvl - HAVAL hash is used as password.
• !rmd - RIPEMD hash is used as password.
• !tgr - Tiger hash is used as password.

When hash is too long for an algorithm, for example if You choose SHA-256 for 128 bit cipher, only the first 128 bits of hash will be used as password.
