I whipped this filter together in about 10 minutes.  It simply does ROT13
rotation.  It could probably be done better.

Compile with:	cc -O -o unrot unrot.c

#include <stdio.h>

main()

{
	register int c;
	while ((c = getchar()) != EOF) {
		if ( c >= 'A' && c <= 'Z') {
			c += 13;
			if ( c > 'Z' )
				c -= 26;
		} else {
			if ( c >= 'a' && c <= 'z') {
				c += 13;
				if ( c > 'z' )
					c -= 26;
			}
		}
		putchar(c);
	}
}
