NAME
     beav - binary file editor and viewer

SYNOPSIS
     beav [file...]

DESCRIPTION
     This  is a brief description of the minimal set of commands that are neces-
     sary to start using beav effectively.  For  more  information,  review  the
     file /usr/local/share/doc/beav/beav.txt.

     The  file-visit  command,	Ctl-X  Ctl-V,  can be used to read a file in for
     editing.	The file can also  be  read  in  from  the  command  line;  beav
     <edit_file>.

     Data  is  displayed  in one or more windows.  These commands can be used to
     navigate around the windows.

	    move-back-char	Ctl-B	  moves left
	    move-back-line	Ctl-P	  moves up
	    move-forw-char	Ctl-F	  moves right
	    move-forw-line	Ctl-N	  moves down
	    window-delete	Ctl-X 0   delete window
	    window-expand	Ctl-X 1   expand window

     The move-to-byte command, Ctl-X G, will prompt you for a byte  position  to
     move to.

     These commands will insert a zero byte at the cursor position or delete the
     byte at that position.

	    insert-unit 	Ctl-X I
	    delete-forw-unit	Esc D

     The  file-save  command,  Ctl-X  Ctl-S, will save the data to the file if a
     change has been made.

     The help command, Esc ?, will display a list of all commands and their cur-
     rent key bindings.

     The abort-cmd command, Ctl-G, will abort any command that is in operation.

     The quit-no-save command, Ctl-X Ctl-C, will exit beav.   If  there  is  any
     data that has not been saved you will be warned.
