NAME

BIEW - console hex viewer/editor and disassembler.

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

ArrayBIEW can do for you -- this manual page describes only several
UNIX-specific features, and is quite useless without the above
mentioned documents.

COMMAND-LINE OPTIONS

-a autodetect mode (default)

-b view file in binary mode

-d view file in disassembler mode

-h view file in hexadecimal mode

-t view file in text mode

Array-i ignore .ini file (create new)

UNIX-specific features of BIEW

1) Key modifiers in terminal mode are re-mapped as:

CTRL+A = ALT

CTRL+C = CTRL

CTRL+S = SHIFT

i.e. pressing CTRL+A acts as holding down ALT , and so on.

CTRL+Z

after any function key is pressed.
[except for BIEW/LINUX in console mode]

Arrayfiltered to avoid unexpected behavior).
[except for BIEW/LINUX in console mode]

3) It is possible to use 7bit output.

4) Configuration file is ~/.biewrc, not biew.ini.

Linux-specific features

ArrayLinux console version uses:
- scan codes (not keystrokes)
- direct video output via /dev/vcsa
IMPORTANT! Console mode is invoked only:
1) if "Direct console access" flag is enabled (F9)
2) on pure virtual terminal
In any other case VT100 mode is used.

BUGS

There could be few. You can fix them on your own, or ask
authors to do it.
