Toolbox - some UX feedback - Caesar Cipher / Square

For the Ceasar Cipher, same as the Rotate.

For the Ceasar Square, can we also get an encrypter?

One of the puzzles I encountered earlier this year had an "Nth" letter, so
OTSTnwieeoxn with the 4th letter would return OneTwoSixTen (simple words because I do this in my head). Is that one which can be added? It's like the famous "strip of characters which you roll around a stick thick enough" encryption :-)

Sorry, not sure I understand. What do you mean the same as rotate?
Also, what sort of encrypter. You mean to MAKE a ceaser square?

On the 3rd one, I'll have a look at that one. I'll add it to the development list.

I meant that the same comments I made for the rotate tool apply here. It's the same functionality.

The new format has been applied. You may need to refresh a few times to get the new stylesheet with the monospace font family in it.

The Caeser Square Creator is now ready and is in the same toolbox as the deciphererererer.
