new cipher takes a number for its key k and moves vowels to the k-th position within the vowels and similarly, moves the consonants backwards to the k-th position within the consonants.
ex.
key = 2
abc ---> iyz
key = 1
abc ----> ezb

    The cipher seems to work for both upper and lower case a..z. This would be an acceptable patch if the following issues were resolved:
    * Fix the alphabet spec in GregEngine to "110000" to limit to upper and lower case a..z.
    * Perhaps the helper should be declared private or protected?
    * The file header documentation needs to be rewritten.
    * A detailed description of the cipher should be used in the class header javadoc comment, including the nice example that was provided in the patch comment.
