Seriously? Why encrypt this?
This is not directed at you as an attack, but I think it generally is too many ppl that have found this "encrypt" button in the past. I think in the long term, we are more served by sharing these script snippets with each other and not hide everything. It's too sad. :(
By the way: It's a great script, thank you for sharing(I have done almost the same script myself)

This was my first script that I have encrypt.
If you see all the others (even the most complex) are all open. I used another my script to encrypt, but only to use another way to install and use the script, just for try... If you want, I send you the open script without problem, only that the explanations inside is written all in Italian ;)
Anyway, thank you for trying the script, and I hope it can be useful to you :)
