For those who can determine crackability:

Recently a message was posted which included source for a chaos-based crypt
routine.  How does this compare to the one-rotor crypt routine which is found
in /bin?  I.e., Which one would be easier to crack, and why?

I am still learning, so I apologize for the waste of bandwidth if it is
intuitively obvious to you.

Both source files are attached.  Thanks.
