MAS 962: Digital Typography

Problem Set One, Problem 2.

The Parser applet employs a simple cypher to translate from one text string to another. The cypher is specified by the input URL http://acg.media.mit.edu/mas962/ps1/code.txt, which is displayed in the TetArea widget of the applet at start up. Subsequently, strings typed into the applet's TextField widget will be translated according to the cypher into output strings in the TextField widget. Characters in the input string which are not recognised as part of the cypher are copied verbatam into the output string.

The Java source code of the Parser applet is available for viewing.
