The first byte is reserved and must be 0.
The byte marked C is the compression byte. To have access to the
data the byte must be 0.
The following 6 bits are reserved and must be 0.
The next bit is the InEXE flag. If this is set to 1, the database
is treated as an InEXE database and will thus have no directory.
The next bit is the Names bit. If this is set, every directory
entry will have a 12 letter name specified. If 0, the directory
entries will be 12 bytes less and can only be referenced by number.
The next two bytes are the version bytes and work the same way as
they do in the InEXE format.
