Passwording

XML, Perl, Python, and other languages can be discussed here, even if it isn't PHP (We might forgive you).

a dos batch file can not be protected, it may be possible to do this with some other tool that will unlock or decrypt the seond file.. I have no idea if any Dos version or WIntendo has any builtin tools, OpenSSL could be used, to decrypt the seond batch file, and after its run it deletes itself or something like that... not great security but the best you can do with dos I believe

I have no idea what/how the Matrix game is/works, but if you are asking for help to crack/hack something I won't provide that sort of support intentionally..

Moved to Miscellaneous as it is not a question about PHP.
