in reply to Where do your code ideas come from?

I'm reviewing a (slightly dated) book on Steganography. A couple of chapters talk about hiding a secret message by creating a mostly-readable dummy message built from character (or chunk) frequency analysis.

That sounds like a fun project, and I'm currently stuck on Jellybean, so that'll be a fun diversion.

I've also toyed with doing a Perl version of Rogue for the Perl Power Tools project (shhhh, don't tell). That's what's on my plate at the moment, besides work stuff.

Maybe I'm just blessed with a short attention span and too much information not to think these things are neat.
