Look out perl, here we come.

I'm all for Perl, but is that a _good_ thing?

$s="-oMmi\ncThhaee lW eKbe:l lhyt".
"\ntEpm:a/i/lw:w wj.ejdeidmiimkie".
"k\@em.ance.tc\n";for$i (0..length(
$s)/2-1){$a.=substr($s,$i*2,1);$b.=
substr($s,($i*2)+1,1);}print"$a$b";

Oh jeez, go and make such a simple script look so ugly. For those of you who prefer "cleaner" perl:

---
$s="-oMmi\ncThhaee lW eKbe:l lhyt"."\ntEpm:a/i/lw:w wj.ejdeidmiimkie"."k\@
em.ance.tc\n";

for$i(0..length($s)/2-1)
{
$a.=substr($s,$i*2,1);
$b.=substr($s,($i*2)+1,1);
}

print"$a$b";
---

and for those of you who want a rough AppleScript conversion:

---
set s to "-oMmi
cThhaee lW eKbe:l lhyt
tEpm:a/i/lw:w email@hidden
"

set a to ""
set b to ""

repeat with i from 0 to round (length of s) / 2 - 1
set a to a & text (2 * i + 1) thru (2 * i + 1) in s
set b to b & text (2 * i + 2) thru (2 * i + 2) in s
end repeat

return a & b
---

Trying to go and make perl all bad....humbug :P
