Dean --------- Template Version: @(#)sac_nextcase 1.66 04/17/08 SMI This information is Copyright 2008 Sun Microsystems 1. Introduction 1.1. Project/Component Working Name: hexedit 1.2. Name of Document Author/Supplier: Author: Ben Dischinger 1.3 Date of This Document: 08 October, 2008 1. Background Shows a file both in ASCII and in hexadecimal. The file can be a device as the file is read a piece at a time. You can modify the file and search through it. hexedit is externally maintained Free Open Source Software (FOSS). Sun's role with this project is to port and monitor the open source project. For additional information about the project or originating community, see [1]. Upstream code changes are not currently needed or anticipated because the project already compiles and runs under Solaris and the version being integrated is stable. hexedit is licensed under the GPLv2 license. See OSR #9962 [2] for more information. This project will port version 1.2.12, the version which was current at the time of the OSR. This project requests a minor release binding. 2. Architecture Hexedit is a user program that enables the viewing and editing of binary files. The file to open is either specified on the command line or with an input prompt that appears if no file is given on the command line. The display uses curses to show the hexadecimal and ascii representation on the left and right of the screen. Commands are used to navigate, edit, and search the file. Many key bindings are consistent with existing conventions (e.g. Ctrl-R, Ctrl-S: search backward and forward). A modeline at the bottom of the screen, similar to emacs, indicates whether a file is unmodified, modified or read-only. Modifications are shown in bold until they are saved. 3.
