27 ;; This package implements a major mode for editing binary files. It uses
28 ;; a program called hexl, supplied with the GNU Emacs distribution, that
29 ;; can filter a binary into an editable format or from the format back into
30 ;; binary. For full instructions, invoke `hexl-mode' on an empty buffer and
31 ;; do M-x `describe-mode'.
33 ;; NOTE: Remember to change `hexl-program' or `hexl-options' if needed.
35 ;; Currently hexl only supports big endian hex output with 16 bit
38 ;; -iso in `hexl-options' will allow iso characters to display in the
39 ;; ASCII region of the screen (if your Emacs supports this) instead of
40 ;; changing them to dots.

272 Movement is as simple as movement in a normal Emacs text buffer. Most
273 cursor movement bindings are the same (ie. Use \\[hexl-backward-char], \\[hexl-forward-char], \\[hexl-next-line], and \\[hexl-previous-line]
274 to move the cursor left, right, down, and up).
276 Advanced cursor movement commands (ala \\[hexl-beginning-of-line], \\[hexl-end-of-line], \\[hexl-beginning-of-buffer], and \\[hexl-end-of-buffer]) are
279 There are several ways to change text in hexl mode:
281 ASCII characters (character between space (0x20) and tilde (0x7E)) are
282 bound to self-insert so you can simply type the character and it will
283 insert itself (actually overstrike) into the buffer.
285 \\[hexl-quoted-insert] followed by another keystroke allows you to insert the key even if
286 it isn't bound to self-insert. An octal number can be supplied in place
287 of another key to insert the octal number's ASCII representation.
289 \\[hexl-insert-hex-char] will insert a given hexadecimal value (if it is between 0 and 0xFF)
290 into the buffer at the current point.
292 \\[hexl-insert-octal-char] will insert a given octal value (if it is between 0 and 0377)
293 into the buffer at the current point.
295 \\[hexl-insert-decimal-char] will insert a given decimal value (if it is between 0 and 255)
296 into the buffer at the current point.
298 \\[hexl-mode-exit] will exit hexl-mode.
300 Note: saving the file with any of the usual Emacs commands
301 will actually convert it back to binary format while saving.
303 You can use \\[hexl-find-file] to visit a file in Hexl mode.
305 \\[describe-bindings] for advanced commands."
