[ale] Security is still hard

[Bob Toxen]

I have seen some "password protection schemes" in applications on
WinDoze merely prohibit the App from showing the contents of a file
without actually encrypting the file's contents.  Thus, one need only
do an octal dump or use an editor to change the password within the file.
