RC5 Encryption and client.Import()

Well, anyways, I -think- I got encrypting and saving it to the client's computer working just fine, I'm just not sure how I would import and decrypt said save when they need it again later. I've tried a few things, but they didn't appear to work, whether it was a problem with Export() earlier or Import() there I have no honest idea about..

I'd much appreciate the help.

Basics of encrypting the savefile:

1) Save Info to Savefile
2) ExportText
3) Encrypt text file
4) ImportText

Basics of decrypting the savefile:

1) ExportText
2) Decrypt text file
3) ImportText


You have to make sure that the data is decrypted before it is reloaded into the savefile. This can be done fairly simply by using
savefile.ImportText("/",RC5_Decrypt(savefile.ExportText("/"),"yourkey"))

That one line exports the encrypted data from the savefile, decrypts it, and imports it back into the savefile.
