Maxim,
Printable text is a good start. Suggestions on how to remove the null
characters would be appreciated. Ultimately, I would also like to be able
to modify the file as well.
TIA,
Jamie

NT .reg files was in unicode, yes. what module do you use to approach
.reg in unicode?

quick (and dirty) way to print this - just remove all null (0) characters
from file after reading, and you should have printable text. but what
do you exactly need?
