That's a nice program! Doesn't do just what I want, though. It shows you (and allows you to edit) the contents of any sector on the disk....but it doesn't tell you what file the sector maps to. If the sector in question were part of a text file, you'd be able to figure it out, but if it's part of an executable, or swap file, or something else that just looks like gibberish, it's doesn't help with this particular problem.
