Cool, although I'm not sure keeping the comments will be really useful for this
tool specifically, as it is mostly used to provide an easy way to parse the
binary data with cstruct (the only fields we explicitly use in the code are
"sw_version" and "date").

With or without the comments in the string, the ack stands. :-)
