Could someone toss me a hint? The reference guide entry for Encode[]: http://documents.wolfram.com/v4/RefGuide/Encode.html states that: | No function is provided in Mathematica to convert encoded files back to | their original form. This function, along with the ReadProtected attribute, is provided as a means for package authors to prevent others from viewing their source code. -- P.J.
