This looks a *lot* like something I did a long time ago ("Data File
Disassembler") when I spent a lot of time reverse-engineering things. I had
a view/edit layer on top (On Mac, back when a Mac II was extreme hardware :)
and man, was it useful... had "pluggable" modules for microcontroller
disassembly, a few common file formats I needed, etc.Just need to get my Lisp fu back, and I can go back to being productive again.
