It has undo support (number of undo operations is only limited by available memory), ability to fill a range of addresses with the specified byte, ability to search for a single byte or character string. Offsets can be given in hexadecimal, octal or decimal. There are two editing modes: hex and ascii. In hex mode you type hexadecimal digits and in ascii mode you type characters. In the ascii mode cursor is automatically moved to the next byte after typing a character (this behaviour is configurable for hex mode). heme uses curses library for screen and input handling. Colors are supported and they may be configured in the configuration file (see below). If the configuration file isn't present, heme will use defaults. You may also specify which configuration file to use with the -c command line op- tion. OPTIONS -n, --no-backup-files Don't make backup files. -c, --config-file CONFIGFILE Read configuration from CONFIGFILE. If not given, heme will try to read ~/.hemerc. If that fails, defaults will be used. -d, --disable-colors Don't use colors. -h, --help Show all available command line options. -v, --version Show heme version. USAGE Keys (all are case-insensitive, except in the ascii mode): left (right) Move to previous (next) byte up (down) Move to previous (next) line < Move to beginning of line > Move to end of line page up Move 1 page up page down Move 1 page down home Move to beginning of file end Move to end of file h Display help screen j Jump to offset n (w) Search for byte (string) r Repeat last search l Fill range with byte tab Toggle between hex and ascii editing modes u Undo s Save file q Quit CONFIGURATION Configuration file is expected to reside in ~/.hemerc. The syntax is very simple: # this is a comment option_1 = value option_2 = "value 2" Everything beyond the '#' is considered a comment and is ignored to the end of that line. Supported options are: use_colors Set this to 1 if you want colors, 0 otherwise (default: 1) advance_after_edit Set this to 1 if you want to advance to the next byte after editing byte at the current offset (default: 1) make_backup_files Set this to 1 if you want heme to make backup files, 0 otherwise (default: 1) bg_color Background color (default: "blue") fg_color Foreground color (default: "white") bg_color_selected Background color of selected byte (default: "black") fg_color_selected Foreground color of selected byte (default: "green") bg_color_status Background color of status lines (default: "cyan") fg_color_status Foreground color of status lines (default: "black") Color names are "black", "red", "green", "yellow", "blue", "magenta", "cyan" and "white". EXAMPLE # This is sample configuration file. advance_after_edit = 0 make_backup_files = 1 use_colors = 1 bg_color = black fg_color = white bg_color_selected = green fg_color_selected = yellow bg_color_status = blue fg_color_status = white FILES ~/.hemerc User's configuration file.
