I'm surprised it's not Git, considering how beloved that is these days
(Perl, NASM, Stone Soup).

I didn't expect any. Two questions, though:

1). Are there any files that have hardcoded data (e.g. paths) in them
that should be avoided when making the .ZIP? Anything that would be
site-specific or only run in LFNs (or SFNs), etc.? Just off the top of
your head.
2). Would it be horribly wrong to make /beta/ use the SYSTEM_MALLOC
build (e.g. Vista)? I figure /current/ can be normal, so users at
least have a choice and don't have to recompile.

BTW, thanks for your efforts on this editor, it's obviously very
useful. And DOS ain't dead yet!
