Maybe you have a web application and you need to store some session data at the client side (in a cookie or hidden form fields) but you don't want the user to be able to mess with the data. maybe you want to save secret information to a text file. maybe you have better ideas of what to do with encrypted stuff!

the crypt::simple module will convert all your data into nice base64 text that you can save in a text file, send in an email, store in a cookie or web page, or bounce around the net. the data you encrypt can be as simple or as complicated as you like.
