# Troi Encryptor Plug-in™ 2.5.2 Troi Encryptor Plug-in is copyright 1998-2007 of Troi Automatisering. All rights reserved (September 25th, 2007). Thank you for your interest in the Troi Encryptor Plug-in. This FileMaker Pro™ Plug-in adds encryption and decryption functions to FileMaker Pro. It also can make message digests (MD5 and SHA1) and adds text encoding functions, like Base64. This cross-platform plug-in is compatible with FileMaker Pro 9, FileMaker Pro 8.x and FileMaker Pro 7 and is using the native FileMaker 7 API. Finally you can do things you thought were still impossible to do with FileMaker Pro. Make your databases more secure by using this plug-in! NB: Troi Encryptor Plug-in is the successor for the Troi Coding Plug-in. ### Recommended reading Please read the FileMaker 6 Conversion Note, which explains how to convert from older FileMaker Pro 6 databases. ## INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS ### INSTALLING A (TROI) PLUG-IN FOR THE FIRST TIME. For Macintosh: put the file "Troi_Encryptor.fmplugin" from the folder "Mac OS Plug-in" into the "Extensions" folder in the FileMaker Pro 9 folder (or the FileMaker Pro 8.x or 7 folder). If you have installed previous versions of this plug-in, you must remove them. For Windows: put the file "Troi_Encryptor.fmx" from the directory "Windows Plug-in" into the "Extensions" subdirectory in the FileMaker Pro 9 directory (or FileMaker Pro 8.x or 7 directory). If you have installed previous versions of this plug-in, you must remove them. You may want to install other plug-ins before proceeding. Then (re)start FileMaker Pro. The Troi Encryptor Plug-in will display a dialog box, indicating that it is loading and showing the registration status. You can now open the file "All Encryptor Examples.fp7" to see how to use the plug-in's functions. ### What Troi Encryptor Plug-in can do for you The encryption functions make it possible to securely store data into FileMaker Pro fields. Or you can create digests: this allows you to check if text has not been changed, by comparing a new digests with a stored digest. Furthermore the plug-in offers compression and functions to safely transport data via email. ### Who wrote it?
