A Pretty Cool Ideaflame2016-10-19Version 3.5

A good method for saving file space which is often at a premium. The basic idea is to point pointers at locations within an existing string where possible.

It will only work for unaligned files. The sub-pointers (that point to a location within an existing string) usually won't be aligned. And if the machine needs aligned addresses in its opcodes, this will cause an address violation.
