Re: zlib unpacker [Request]

The idea isn't bad, but I won't implement that (maybe later) since every good hex editor provides both hex and decimal offsets, furthermore this version of the tool is meant to be also used in automatic processing. Might take some time til it's finished since I'm completely rewriting the tool in ano...

Re: Legal Question
