What if a key foo.sz really exists and somebody wants to create

No problem. If you want to create
Now, what if you write a file as foo.sz, and then write it as foo.dw. Do
we change the key type?
Absolutely.
Do we fail with ENOENT? What is the semantics there?
Well, the semantics of the registry API is that you specify the type
explicitly every time you set a value, and that

Hmm, there is currently no way for the programs to find out the registry

What's wrong with using open() flags?

REG_BINARY can now be ether read as binary from stdin:

$ regtool get KEY/BINVALUE | regtool -b set KEY/BINVALUE -

Hi,
the attached patch adds commands load and unload and options -b,

Load a registry hive from PATH into new SUBKEY:

Good point. Why don't we just emulate the
