Programmed by Doubleshadow.
The INI format as well as CUT1 decompilation are based on my reverse engeneering
of CheckerTwo's program DeBOB.
The structure of binary BOB1 as well as decompilation algorithms for BOB1 are
based on source codes provided to me by CheckerTwo. All codes based on Checker's
work are released with his permission.
