Code editors do not unwind an executable to structured source code like you can inspect in an open source project.

if you can get into it, you can..   thats the hard part.   There are lots of guys in the Linux family  that love doing that stuff.   In fact in the late 90's before AutoCad allowed 'Add-Ons' guys were tweaking its code do to a lot of stuff..  I used many of the tweaks they invented at work all the time..  In fact we used Bentley Cad for the most part and there was a guy in Atlanta in my industry that was changing the Bentley Cad code to add a whole host of nice tools our industry used.  The tools he was creating got very popular so he started a compnay called Focus 1 and started selling his version along with a licensed paid for copy of the Bentley software.  it was actually a  copy of Bentley with his code changes. .  Eventually, Bentley caught on to what he was doing and sued Focus 1.. The guy ended up forfeiting his version of code to Bentley  and since Bentley has been marketing those tools as Bentley Comms.  Our compnay had 8 seats from this guy with a huge investment in them..  We ended up going to AutoCad, when Bentley started to hardball us on purchasing their new versions without discounts...  I dont't think many left are using Bentley.
