Just curious if anyone has heard of a progressive shift method.  I was fiddling around and trying to develop some sort of simple algorithm.  Simply put, using the entire ASCII alphabet (and programming in C++) I've developed a program that shifts the first letter one position, the second letter two positions, third letter three, etc.  It encrypts letters as well as spaces and punctuation, making the text look completely random.  I know it's really simple, but it's a start :-P, just wanted to share and find out if anyone thought it was interesting
