Where are the people of sci.crypt who used to take every chance to play
with non-mainstream ciphers?

Let me offer an incentive here: if someone checks my testvectors using
his own NewDES implementation, I will post here an heretic abomination,
which I did on RC4 cipher. Your life will never be the same again.

Hello all,

I would like to ask for help in confirming test vector for cipher
NewDES, revision 3-2-96, as posted to sci.crypt by its author,
Robert Scott at March 2nd 1996. I made my own implementation and
I want to confirm if it is correct.

The test vectors calculated by my implementation are:
