Ok.. maybe the subject is not 100% clear.

My problem is the following. I'm doing a little tool that generate a
text file.

The content of the text file is stored in a "const char *mycontent"

When I compile the program and I do "strings
compiled_program_binary".. I see the content of the "mycontent"
variable.

Is there any way to make sure it will not be visible when doing
'strings' ?

Thanks,
--Ben

ROT13 it?
Who are you trying to hide it from, and why?
