How about a really small ROT program in Arexx...

/*Rot 13 in REXX*/
Rotated = "nopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklm"
Normal  = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
PARSE ARG Input
Temp = Translate(Input,Rotated,Normal)
Say Translate(Temp,UPPER(Rotated),UPPER(Normal))

I used variables that were readable, and it's even got a comment, and is only
201 bytes long.

Well, I thought it was neat. :-/
