The M-209 is a mechanical cipher machine used by the US military during World War II and up to the Korean War. The M-209 is also known as the CSP-1500 by the US Navy. The M-209 is an example of a Hagelin device, a family of mechanical cipher machines created by Swedish inventor Boris Hagelin.

This project is a Python 3 library and command-line utility for encrypting and decrypting text by simulating the operation of an actual M-209 device.
