Bad idea: build a captcha library that embeds DOSBox so it can make you beat levels/puzzles from DOS games to continue.

so I think what's going on is these weirdos abused the 16bit linker to build their DAT files
that's why they're all DLL/EXE files
-
so it seems the NE files have multiple resource sections, and the first one has an index to get to the sub-chunk, and the rest are just in that order.
-
I don't know if they wrote their own NE executable header parser or there's some weird API for it that they're using
-
oh goody it emulates file numbers on top of the whole windows Handle thing.
so it's limited to 127 files open at once
-
correction: 30 files
-
okay yeah they're parsing their own EXE Files.
absolutely wild.

Borland Turbo C++: I know compilers who merge constant strings and they're all cowards

I think I found the "load this resource by type+ID" function.
I had temporarily named it "something_resource_something"

I have altered the gear puzzle
pray I do not alter it any further
