C Programming - RSA Encryption

I've tried to write a program that can encrypt and decrypt strings using RSA and want to be able to integrate it into a header file which contains codes for compression, linked list etc.. However, the use of global variables and fixed size of encryption is making it hard to do so

Can someone please help me modify the following the code? I want to be able to just pass it in a string to encrypt and want the values of x and y (the prime numbers) to be the same. Eg 3 and 7. Basically making the RSA code simpler. Please don't change or add to the used libraries.

assuming you only want me to make this code such that you only have to input string and rest program will do itself
code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int x, y, n, t, i, flag;

long int e[50], d[50], temp[50], j, m[50], en[50];

char msg[100];

int prime(long int);

void encryption_key();

long int cd(long int);

void encrypt();

void decrypt();

int main()
{
x = 3;
flag = prime(x);
y = 7;
flag = prime(y);
printf("\nENTER MESSAGE OR STRING TO ENCRYPT\n");
scanf("%s", msg);
for (i = 0; msg[i] != '\0'; i++)
m[i] = msg[i];
n = x * y;
t = (x - 1) * (y - 1);
encryption_key();
encrypt();
decrypt();
return 0;
}

int prime(long int pr)
{
int i;
j = sqrt(pr);
for (i = 2; i <= j; i++)
{

if (pr % i == 0)

return 0;
}
return 1;
}

//function to generate encryption key

void encryption_key()

{
int k;
k = 0;
for (i = 2; i < t; i++)
{

if (t % i == 0)

continue;

flag = prime(i);

if (flag == 1 && i != x && i != y)

{

e[k] = i;

flag = cd(e[k]);

if (flag > 0)

{

d[k] = flag;

k++;
}

if (k == 99)

break;
}
}
}

long int cd(long int a)

{
long int k = 1;
while (1)
{

k = k + t;

if (k % a == 0)

return (k / a);
}
}

//function to encrypt the message

void encrypt()

{
long int pt, ct, key = e[0], k, len;
i = 0;
len = strlen(msg);
while (i != len)
{

pt = m[i];

pt = pt - 96;

k = 1;

for (j = 0; j < key; j++)

{

k = k * pt;

k = k % n;
}

temp[i] = k;

ct = k + 96;

en[i] = ct;

i++;
}
en[i] = -1;
printf("\nTHE ENCRYPTED MESSAGE IS\n");
for (i = 0; en[i] != -1; i++)

printf("%c", en[i]);
}

//function to decrypt the message

void decrypt()

{
long int pt, ct, key = d[0], k;
i = 0;
while (en[i] != -1)
{

ct = temp[i];

k = 1;

for (j = 0; j < key; j++)

{

k = k * ct;

k = k % n;
}

pt = k + 96;

m[i] = pt;

i++;
}
m[i] = -1;
printf("\n\nTHE DECRYPTED MESSAGE IS\n");
for (i = 0; m[i] != -1; i++)

printf("%c", m[i]);
printf("\n");
}
