Now that I've untangled the checksum on .R files, StarsPWD.pl can now also blank the password of .R files

You can:
Reset the password on a .M file (so you can open it with no password)
- If you don't reset the password, stored in the .HST file, it will come back
Reset the password on a .HST file (so you can open it with no password)
- Also resets the password of players in the .HST file. Reset the .M password(s) at the same time
Reset password on a .X file (so you can programmatically prevent someone setting a password)
Reset the password on a .R file (for those race files you can't remember the password)

As with any utility, back up your files first, but works fine on my machine Smile

You'll need both StarsPWD.pl and StarsBlock.pm
