Basic 17 help

OK I know I need to open the specified file but IM running linux and I cant be arsed to turn on my windows pc to open the file. Anyone know of any software I can get for linux to open the file?? thanks

well think of what you could open it with in Windows, then think of what is like that with linux… i would tell you what it is, however I first wouldnt want to spoil it…. and second I dont know which distro you are running… because it is called something different in each.

Any text editor you want. It's compiled you know, you're not supposed to see pure scripts when looking at it ;)

your not Supposed to be able to view it easily… but if you look close enough… you'll notice something that is not any form of syntax… but you'll notice it if you read through it..

-no offense uberon… just thought i would say that.

Come on ppl this is easy as the first challenge

very easy, forget all of that java decompiler crap, you don't need it… just try opening the thingy in a very popular and common microsoft program ;) The main thing with most of these "basic" challenges is that they are just that, very "basic". Try the simplest things first ;)

sorry, I can't actually tell you which program, that would be way too much of a spoiler, if I haven't spoiled it already :P
