[Proof of concept] [1.5] Secure random channel switch

As the 1.5, rednet will be not secure anymore, as everyone could listen on your channel.
So I thought something should be done and I came up with the idea of a random channel switcher. I'm gonna make it more secure with encoding of the channel number.
This is fast, relatively secure and very simple to use.

I think every network program should use this for extra security. Feel free to distribute with your program just give me credit, a link to this thread will be sufficient :)/>/>

The Pastebin link is incorrect, I think it has 'io' appended to it. http://pastebin.com/wD3Mx4ez works for me. Also, there is an error on line 21: os.pullEvet should be os.pullEvent. Good job nonetheless :)/>

For stuff like this to be useful, you must have encryption… I'll get to work…

Thanks you for the help, I typed it on my phone so some typing errors can appears.

About encryption I'm working on it :)/>
