Can I use ReFox to somehow get the source code from the distributed
EXE

Sure. You should be aware of three limitations, though:
1) Comments won't be recovered unless they are in a VCX/SCX file and
the
EXE has been created with debug info.
2) Constants in include files cannot be recovered at all. You get an
empty
include file and everything in the source is replaced.
3) Certain expressions are simplified. Where the original source code
read
x = 5+3 you get x = 8 when you decompile. With code that calculates
positions or lengths this might be less readable.
Thanks for that heads-up, Christof. It will have to be, unfortunately,
as I don't think we've got any other options at this point.
