Maybe a minor quibble, but obj2asm is really slow. If I'm going to 
disassemble something, I am never going to reach for obj2asm:

`ds` is a dmdscript testscript.d executable:

[~]$ time objdump -d ~/bin/ds >ds.s

real	0m1.139s
user	0m0.912s
sys	0m0.052s
[~]$ time obj2asm ./bin/ds >ds.s  # If you pass an absolute path (starts 
with '/'), obj2asm tries to interpret it as an argument. >_<

real	0m55.809s
user	0m11.009s
sys	0m31.094s


And out of curiosity, why do you charge for it on Windows, but provide 
it on Linux for free? Because the rest of the utilities are fairly 
windows-centric?
