It's a fairly rote translation from C, not taking advantage of D. I'd like to 
upgrade it to using ranges, etc. It would make a nice base for someone who
feels

Yes, I use this editor every day, as it works identically on Windows, Linux, 
OSX, FreeBSD, DOS (!), etc., and is easy to port.

no idea why.

How well does it handle large files? (Like, several gigabytes 
large).

Hmm. Never happens to me.

Badly. For one thing, it's a 32 bit program and tries to do everything in
memory.

WIN32_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DATA is defined in

druntime\import\core\sys\windows\windows.d
