Hi KormaX,

Thanks for the feedback. Meanwhile, I think most people have no idea about what the “relocation information” is, nor its purpose. The HX-DOS executable (as with the last version) is compressed by UPX to greatly save disk space and reduce load time, so you can try uncompress the binary with UPX if you want the uncompressed version.
