The Original Poster did say in his first post that he knew about translate
and encode and he wasn't looking for those solutions:

[quote]
Yes, I know of .encode() and .translate().
No, I don't actually need rot13 itself, it's just a convenient
substitute example for the real job-specific task.
[end quote]

Perhaps rot13 wasn't the best choice in the world, but how was Andy to
know people would answer his post without reading it in full?

Oh wait, this is Usenet...

*wink*
