I posted the above message last week and got no response.  I think I may
have worded my request erroneously.  What I want are source codes to 
break ciphertext.  I think my use of the word "cracking" may have people 
thinking of breaking a computer systems password file, which is not what 
I want.

If you know of any FTP site, or if you have some source code that 
demonstrate techniques used in code breaking, please email.   Thanks.
