I have a script that acts as a library that houses some credentials that allow the scripts to mount certain volumes in our network and do other things that require credentials. The other scripts load this script and then reference properties from it.

You have to obfuscate both the password and the handler to de-obfuscate it.

property myobfuscatedpw: 0987636209839840

on getpw()
[ uselessly complicated script to decypher the obfuscated pw, using an arbitrary algorithm of yours ]
