I can almost spell MATRIX. Using 10x10 square, and removing spaces, I get:

MEYAOGZR!E
AD?E?MNSWO
CTRETAO!EA
RYES;I,NUN
N-FIXHR(DT
VOD:RHQMC)
YOLWR'ASKC
NLP.OSPOIG
EFLRI'FBRW

@Link:
... Morse or binary?
Neither. No encoding was used at all.
... anagram ...
Nope. No wild guessing involved.
... Using 10x10 square ... removing spaces ...
Making a rectangle is ok, but we need the spaces.

@Hel:
... group it in 3 columns ...
:nod: Correct. I hoped you would spot the number (111=37*3) of characters.
(And maybe also the font size of 3, which was a very subtle hint.)
... first column starts with 'maze' ...
:nod: Read on, there's a bit more...

Re: Cryptomania
 

If i continue hel's idea: I read "MAZED? SORT!" then some random stuff. Frequency? ABC Order with the remaining threes?

_ means space. I broke it into three rectangles, instead of one, to make it easier to read. <- there's an error.

... ABC Order with the remaining threes ...
Only the remaining? Heck, let's sort all of them! :biggrin:
