Description-en: steganography using ASCII files
This utility can conceal messages in ASCII text by appending
whitespace to the end of lines. Because spaces and tabs are generally
not visible in text viewers, the message is effectively hidden from
casual observers. And if the built-in encryption is used, the message
cannot be read even if it is detected.
.
About the name: locating trailing whitespace in text is like finding
a polar bear in a snowstorm. And it uses the ICE encryption
algorithm, so the name is thematically consistent.
