# XXX - needs byte-endian stuff (big-endian and little-endian DVI?)
#
# From <conklin@talisman.kaleida.com>
# Although we may know the offset of certain text fields in TeX DVI
# and font files, we can't use them reliably because they are not
# zero terminated. [but we do anyway, christos]

# I couldn't find a real magic number for these, however, this
# -appears- to work. Note that it might catch other files, too,
# so BE CAREFUL!

# Note that title and author appear in the two 20-byte chunks
# at decimal offsets 2 and 22, respectively, but they are XOR'ed with
# 255 (hex FF)! DL format SUCKS BIG ROCKS.
