Here is description of my stream cipher, it operates one
byte at time, instead of one bit at time.
it�s key length is up to 255 bytes (2040 bits)

im sure that there are no need for longer description,
becourse that vb source code explanes details.
only thing that could be difficult to understund is
Asc(Mid(Text2, R2 - 1, 1)) that simppely means that
take asci value from text (in this case string text2)
starting from R2 - 1 and length of 1. i think that
everyone understunds the rest.


VB source code:

D = Len(Key)
R = 1

For R2 = 1 To 256
H1 = Asc(Mid(Text2, R2 - 1, 1))
K1 = Asc(Mid(Text2, R, 1))
K2 = Asc(Mid(Text2, D Mod Len(Text2), 1))
K3 = Asc(Mid(Text2, D * R Mod Len(Text2), 1))
K4 = Asc(Mid(Text2, R + D Mod Len(Text2), 1))

R1 = ((R1 + R2 + K + 1) Xor (R1 * R2 + 1)) Mod 256
R3 = ((R3 + R1 + 1) + R2 + (R1 * K + 1 Mod (R3 + R1 + 1))) Mod 256
R4 = (R4 + R3 + R1 + 1) ^ 2 Mod 256

R = R + 1
If (R - 1) = Len(Text2) Then R = 1

C = (C + (H1 + K1 + K2 + K3 + K4 + D + R1 + R3 + R4) Mod 256) Mod 256
C = C Mod 256


SBox = SBox & Chr(C Mod 255 + 1)
