AW: Brute Force attack on VMS

["Anders, Claus" <canders@xxxxxxxxx>]

yes, if the 1st char starts with 1 and not 0.
I don't know of any name. I just wondered what method could produce such an
encoding , that we get always the same code for the same word.
If you like, I can write a small awk script, encode an english Text (which
one?) and run an entropy test on the result.
