If I were trying it, I would insert the .lnk file into an emacs buffer
and then return the buffer as a string ...
And then use the ordinary aref or subseq functions to access each
bytes:
If the format of .lnks turns out to be complicated, it might make more
sense to do the parsing inside the buffer, rather than turning the
buffer into a string and then parsing the string. The advantage is
that it's easy to move point forward and back in a buffer.
