Recently, I got a few files in the form of xxx.bsc. They LOOKED like normal
Binscii files except for one small detail. They all had a space before EVERY
line. I didn't think that would bother GScii but it did. I then, with a text
editor, removed all the spaces and it worked fine. What makes these files and
what unpacks them?
