   Yes, that's pretty much what I'd surmised from your previous post.   
   Laborious, yes, but then realize that you're conversing with someone who,   
   _for fun_ decided to write a video game in 8080 machine code on an early   
   microprocessor donated to my high school, and who did so by peeking and   
   poking the machine code onto the chip to produce a working, though crude,   
   version of "Tank." Crazy and stupid, yes, but it taught me a lot about the   
   8080 chip.

   To me, source-level is assembly. What I meant is that it's disassembled   
   machine code.

   The references I supplied in my response to fwaggle are probanly more   
   useful. My one continuing source of confusion is this:   
      
   Where is the DLL resident when you edit it?   
   What OS are you running IDA Pro on?   
      
   In any event, what you describe does sound to me like cross-platform   
   hacking: you're hacking a DLL for your handheld on another system.  Or, if   
   not, them I'm just terminally confused. Regardless, it sounds like OCD to   
   me, in which case any of those OCD utilities I listed in my more recent   
   post should help.   
      
   Thanks for the stimulating question!
