I'll back up the disassembly theory. I've done it myself once when I
lost some of my own source code from years previous and had to get out
the dissassembler. Very painful work which resulted in a first set of
source much like the "S1" sample posted here. Only difference was that I
went back over the "first draft" after verifying it and cleaned it up
somewhat.
The poster either does not know 'C' or thinks that a cleanup will reveal
his/her style.
