Frequently Asked Questions
You can choose to: stop when the shortest text ends, continue with remaining characters from the longer text, or pad the shorter text with a specified character to match lengths.
Yes, interleave any number of texts. Characters are taken from each input in order, cycling through all inputs. Three texts "A", "B", "C" interleave their characters in A-B-C-A-B-C pattern.
Switch to de-interleave mode and specify how many original texts were combined. The tool separates characters back into separate outputs by reversing the alternating pattern.
Yes, set the chunk size to take more than one character from each input before moving to the next. A chunk size of 2 with "AABB" and "1122" gives "AA11BB22".
Interleaving provides basic obfuscation—the message is unreadable without de-interleaving. It's not secure encryption, but works for puzzles, games, and casual hiding where decoding difficulty isn't critical.
