Figured it was a bad idea. Way back when I used Windows Write to change text
within programs that was usually okay, but only if I didn't touch anything else
not ever having learned C programming.

I installed a file code editor and got same result anyway when deleting back to
prior ViIdINT4, which is what I'm seeing a good state file always ends with.
