Hi,
	does anyone know if it is possible to obtain a complete version of the
German ENIGMA machine in software? I know that crypt(3) uses a two rotor
system (a trivialized ENIGMA machine) and I can get source code. I could
probably hack the code together from a mathematical description of the 
machine's workings. But heck, why reinvent the wheel :-)

Replies by email preferable.

Thanks in advance,
	Glenn
