Well, the crypt function is back

The file list I hadn't used before, it is pretty cool; and the Windows API translation appears to be working well finally (OK, so I skipped every version after 5.81 ;)

The reason for the size is the dual-EXE; apparently HIEW.EXE runs in both DOS and OS/2 and is no longer in two separate files. This is great if you use OS/2 [does anyone, still?], but otherwise it is --as I said-- a waste of space. And since Hiew is PKlite'd it is not simply a matter of ripping the OS/2 code out of a DOS EXE.

Ah well, it works, and is a pretty decent disassembler. The ability to do code-location labels would be nice, but would move it out of the realm of hex-editor and into the realm of disassembler, so I guess I'll have to be content with bookmarks :)
