This example creates a /teaencrypt command, which performs the TEA on a given string with the specified key, if any.

function encrypt(cmd, string, key)
    if string then
        if not key then
            key = string.rep(string.char(math.random(string.byte("a"), string.byte("Z"))), 10) -- Generate a random key of 10 characters
        end
        local encodedString = teaEncode(string, key) -- Encode the string with the key
        outputChatBox("The encoded string is: " .. encodedString .. " (used key: " .. key .. ")")
