[L7Sqr]

Instead of trying to get back to the middle of a function why dont you just break it up into multiple functions to begin with? Something like:

int main () {
   /*
      do all output thing here as you already have
   */
   cout << "This is enigma machine:" << endl;
   // ...

   call_main_loop ();
   return 0;
}

void call_main_loop () {

   /* 
      Starting from where you'd like to loop back to
   */
   char Letter;
   going_through_entered_characters_array++;
   // ...
}

That way, to get back to that point, you just call call_main_loop.

Where you call print() you can break out of the loop.
