(Press MAGENTA{{HELP}}}## key) %[1] %[3] DKWHITEWHITEPRODUCT INFO## This key shows information about editor, conditions and me. %[3] %[4] DKWHITEWHITEABORT SELECT## The DKGREENF4## key aborts the current selection. Whatever is currently marked, will become unmarked. No data is lost. The DKGREENESC## will work as well. %[4] %[11] DKWHITE WHITEPASTE TO CLIPBOARD## This key will allow the user to copy the selected text to the clipboard. The user may later insert the text into the document. The default key for this is the MAGENTAINSERT## key, but it may be mapped to a different key. Deleting marked text will also save what was marked to the clipboard. %[11] %[30] DKWHITE WHITEVIEW FILE WITH ANOTHER EDITOR## This key will allow the user to view the file using the editor defined in hex.cfg. %[30] %[31] DKWHITE WHITECONVERTER## This feature is nice for quickly finding the value of a number in another base. Simply select a base using the arrow keys and enter a valid number. After you hit Enter, the corresponding values will appear for the other bases. %[31] %[32] DKWHITE WHITECOUNT OCCURENCES## This key will allow the user to count the number of occurences of a pattern starting from the current position. The cursor does not move. %[32] %[34] DKWHITE WHITEEDIT NEW FILE## This key will allow the user to start editing a new file. If changes have not been saved, a warning box appears. %[34] %[36] DKWHITE WHITEGOTO OFFSET## This key will allow the user to move the cursor to the offset specified. %[36] %[38] DKWHITE WHITETOGGLE INSERT MODE## This key will allow the user to switch between overwrite and insert mode. The current status is shown at right of the screen. The word WHITEINSERT## will appear if insert mode is on. %[38] %[49] DKWHITE WHITEVIEW AS TEXT FILE## This key will allow the user to view the portion that is curretnly being viewed to be seen in normal text file. This is almost the same as {{ALTERNATE EDITOR}} except that this viewer is built in and thus takes ALOT less memory. It is VERY quick too! %[49] %[54] DKWHITE WHITEDOS SHELL## This key will allow the user to enter a dos shell. Type EXIT to return to this beautiful editor. %[54] %[10] DKWHITE WHITESAVE SELECTION## This key will allow the user to save WHITEONLY## the text that is selected, and delete the rest! Be careful with this one. %[10] %[9] DKWHITE WHITEPRINT TO FILE## This key will allow the user to print entire file to a file using the format that is used on the screen. %[9] %[2] DKWHITE WHITESTART SELECT ## This key allows the user to choose where a selection is to begin. One may also use the mouse to do this. Pressing the left button and dragging the mouse will select text. Once the mouse button is released, the user may save or delete it. To unselect the text, one may press DKESC##, or use the mouse and click anywhere in the work area. %[2] %[5] DKWHITE WHITESEARCH ## This key allows you to search for a HEX value or a word. If the cursor is currently on the Hex side (MAGENTAHex Mode## will appear at right of screen), then the search is done using hexadecimal digits. If the cursor is on the Char side (MAGENTAChar Mode##), a normal word is searched. The DKGREENSEARCH AGAIN## key may be pressed to search for the next occurence. One may wish to count the number of times a certain pattern occurs. The DKGREENCOUNT_OCCURENCES ## key enables this to be done. A pattern to be searched is entered and the Search Counter will reveal the number of times it occurs AFTER and including the current position. %[5] %[6] DKWHITE WHITECHANGE COLORS ## This option allows you to change the colors of the screen. Use the vertical arrows to choose an option. At this point, you can use the horizontal arrows to scroll through the colors or you can hit 'Enter' to select from the valid options. DKGREENF4## Set screen to default colors DKGREENF10## Exit, saving changes made. Use Options/Save Desktop to save to disk. DKGREEN<ESC>## Exit, without saving changes DKGREEN<SPACE>## or DKGREEN<Middle Mouse Button>## Toggles BLINKFlash## mode %[6] %[7] DKWHITE WHITELOCKED TOTAL ## This key does some special things. If it is in the WHITELOCKED## mode (by default) you may not delete the last byte. This prevents inadvertent erasing when deleting multiple characters at the end of a file. If you are not sure what I am talking about, try deleting the last bunch of characters from each mode. When in WHITEFREE## mode, new characters are created when you cursor down or page down. As soon as you have created the space you need, it is recommended that you swithc back to locked mode. Trust me. %[7] %[8] DKWHITE WHITELINES PER PAGE ## This should now be done using MAGENTAOptions## / MAGENTAMisc Config##. %[8] %[45] DKWHITE WHITEGOTO PAGE ## This key will allow the user to switch to the page number specified. A page is not defined by where the cursor is. The page number changes as soon as the previous page is not longer showing. %[45] %[52] DKWHITE WHITESAVE## This key will allow the user to save the document currently being worked on. It is assumed that you are renaming the file rather than overwriting it, due to the fact that editing binary editing binary files is often dangerous. %[52] %[53] DKWHITE WHITEEXIT ## The DKGREENEXIT## key will allow the user to exit the program. If changes have been made, you are asked if you are sure you want to exit to exit without saving. %[53] %[42] DKWHITE WHITEMAPPING ## The DKCYANALT M## key will allow to map keys to other keys. DKCYAN{{CHANGE CONFIG}}## Change configuration options DKCYAN{{SAVE CONFIG}}## Save desktop settings. (Colors, mappings..) Currently, keys cannot be mapped in file selection mode %[42] %[108] DKWHITE WHITEFILE SELECTION MODE (Page 1) DKCYANAlt-A ## View file with a text editor (defined in hex.cfg) DKCYANAlt-B ## Base converter. Convert between Octal, Hex, Decimal & Binary DKCYANAlt-D ## Deletes File Without Query (When AUTO DELETE Set) DKCYANAlt-F ## Load a File, Change Directory or view *.??? files DKCYANAlt-I ## Information About Directory and Disk DKCYANAlt-N ## Edit a New File DKCYANAlt-R ## Run the highlighted program. Replaces HEX editor DKCYANAlt-S ## Exit (Stay in Current Directory) DKCYANESC ## Exit DKCYANF8 ## Select Number of Lines (Usually 25 or 50) Click on Drive Letters at top of screen to change drives. DKGREEN<Page Down> %[108] %[56] DKWHITE WHITEFILE SELECTION MODE (Page 2) ## DKCYANCtrl-Home ## Goto First File DKCYANCtrl-End ## Goto Last File DKCYANArrows Keys## Press <Enter> to Edit File Selected DKCYANMouse ## Click Left Button Once to Pick. Twice to Load. DKCYAN<a-z,0-9> ## Finds Next File Which Begins With That Character. DKCYANCopy File ## Copy the selected file to another name. DKCYAN<Delete> ## Prompt Before Deleting File DKCYAN<SPC BAR> ## Change File Attributes (or Right Mouse Button) DKCYAN *.* ## Files being viewed. Same as Alt-F. DKGREEN<GREENCDKGREENonfiguration Help>## DKGREEN< Page Up > %[56] %[57] DKWHITE WHITEAUTO DELETE ## The file selection mode will allow the user to delete files by selecting a file a file and either clicking on the RED<Delete>## or by hitting the delete key. If the WHITEAUTO DELETE## is set to yes, you will not be asked if you are sure. This is handy if you are deleting a whole bunch of files. %[57] %[58] DKWHITE WHITEBIG FILE ## When you load a file, a temporary file is created so that your changes are not saved directly to the original file. This also allows Hex to the disk swapping it needs in order to be able to edit files of any size. If you are loading a very large file,you may not always want to create a temp file (may take a while). The WHITEBIG FILE## option says how many bytes is considered to be a big file. If the file being loaded is bigger than this, the user will be asked if they want to see the file in read-only mode only. Using the read-only mode will not create a tempfile, and thus it is extremely fast! %[58] %[59] DKWHITE WHITEEDITOR ## The WHITEEDITOR## option lets you specify the name of another editor which you can use to look at the current file. This is useful when looking at textual parts of the file. The built in text viewer function will allow very quick viewing although it is very basic purely for viewing. %[59] %[60] DKWHITE WHITELINES ## This variables tells Hex how many lines you would like to use. If you are working in 25 line mode, this should be set to 25. If this setting is set to AUTO, Hex will use whatever mode was being used before entering Hex. %[60] %[61] DKWHITE WHITEMEMORY ## Hex uses disk swapping in order to edit files of any size. Normally, an editor will grab a bunch of memory and if you have a file bigger than this amount, you cannot edit it. The WHITEMEMORY## setting allows you to specify the amount of memory you would like to use before needing to go to the disk. A tenth of this amount is used as an overflow buffer, so if you use 50000 as your WHITEMEMORY## setting, Hex will not need to go to the disk until you surpass the 45000 byte mark. So the lower the value is, the more Hex needs to go disk, but inserting and deleting will be quicker. So, you can choose! Usually, around 40000 or 50000 is good. I am planning to eventually rewrite the disk swapping algorithm so that it will be quick no matter what you choose. %[61] %[62] DKWHITE WHITEOVERWRITE ## When the WHITEOVERWRITE## is set to 'Y', text will be overwritten. When it is set to 'N', text is inserted instead. %[62] %[63] DKWHITE WHITEPAUSE TIME ## This decides the length in time, in 1/1000ths of a seconds that the little informative boxes stay up. These boxes are a little silly. The originaly intent was to let the user know what he had done by coming out and telling them. They are probably more annoying than anything though. %[63] %[64] DKWHITE WHITESCRTIME ## This is the length of time in seconds before the screen saver will kick in. If there is no activity from mouse or keyboard for this length of time, it will start up. Hitting a key,clicking or moving the mouse will return back to Hex. The default is three hundred (5 minutes). %[64] %[65] DKWHITE WHITETEMP ## This is the directory in which temp files should be written. If you use a RAMdrive, this speeds up things big time when using larger (you will need enough space to hold the file's length). If TEMP=AUTO, then the TEMP environment variable is always used instead. This means that it will never need to 'hard code' it in the hex.cfg file %[65] %[66] DKGREEN WHITEConfiguration Options## DKGREEN<GREENA##UTO DELETE> DKGREEN<GREENB##IG FILE> DKGREEN<GREENC##ASE SENSITIVE> DKGREEN<GREENE##DITOR> DKGREEN<GREENL##INES> DKGREEN<GREENM##EMORY> DKGREEN<GREENO##VERWRITE> DKGREEN<GREENP##AUSE TIME> DKGREEN<GREENS##CRTIME> DKGREEN<GREENT##EMP> DKWHITEThese are settings which are saved in the Hex.cfg file. These settings allow you to customize your desktop as well as optimizing performance. These can be changed while in file edit mode by using the Options pull down menu (or Alt-O).
