This won't happen for GridFlow 9.13, which is already supposed to be 
completed since feb 8th, but is still being worked on nearly two weeks 
later.

I'd like to figure it out for the release of GridFlow 9.14.

Seems difficult to figure that one out.

I'll look into that...

That'll make GF run somewhat faster. I didn't use my UNROLL_8 macro 
wherever I could use it. It's good that GCC 4 does it for me (previously, 
auto-unrolling was a lot more modest and usually couldn't apply to GF's 
loop.)

I could do this, but users will still be informed of the extraction trick 
after they extract the archive. But it isn't a big deal to extract the 
archive twice... just delete and try again.

aaaah, and what is it like in other versions of Windows ? (5.1, 7.0)
