Dump3a New version for the S3a with this new features: - Dump3a takes advantage of the bigger screen and shows 208 bytes - Edit mode can now be accessed by the diamond key - The build in calculator now allows decimal input - Dump3a has a search function in either hex and ascii mode. Dump3a is a program for viewing and modifying (CAUTION !!!) any type of file in either binary and ascii mode. It's provided as an .opa file. Installation: Copy the Dump3a.opa file into any \app directory and install it as an application from the system screen. Functions: The screen is divided into a status line at the top, a dump in binary mode and a dump in ascii mode. The status line indicates ths bytes shown and the actual position of the cursor. moves the cursor one byte left moves the cursor on byte right moves the cursor one line (16 bytes) up moves the cursor one line (16 bytes) down moves the cursor one page (208 bytes) up moves the cursor one page (208 bytes) down o asks for a new filename i gives you some information about the file in use e or this is a toggle key for editing the current diamond key file. The Edit Mode is indicted by an arrow at the left side of either the binary or the ascii dump. You can toggle between the binary and the ascii mode by pressing the key. In ascii mode you can enter all characters available on the Series 3a keyboard and also all combinations with except the combination <009> (this is the key). Each character is written directly to the file. In binary mode you can enter all values in hex- code (0-9,A-F). The program waits for two valid keystrokes and then writes the character to the file. After the first half-byte you can delete it pressing the key. Pressing the key terminates the byte editing. j asks you for an address to jump to. c pops up a simple hex-calculator. It works in RPN-mode. That means that you have to enter operations like this number >enter> number operator number ... Operators can be '+ - * /'. *** NEW *** Pressing the number sign (#) as the first sign changes the the input from hexadecimal to decimal input. You can calculate only with integers. Dividing an odd number by an even number gives an integer. A nice feature of the calculator is that pressing j inside the calculator jumps directly to the calculated address. You can edit the number only with the key. *** NEW *** Pressing the monkey tail (@) deletes the input line. Pressing j or terminates the calculator. f opens a new screen where you can enter up to 20 characters to search for. These characters can be entered either in hexadecimal or ascii mode. In ascii mode you can enter all characters available on the Series 3a keyboard and also all combinations with except the combination <009> (this is the key). Each character is written directly to the file. In binary mode you can enter all values in hex- code (0-9,A-F). The program waits for two valid keystrokes and then writes the character to the file. After the first half-byte you can delete it pressing the key. Pressing the key terminates the byte editing. Pressing changes between the hexadecimal and the ascii input. You can move the cursor with the and the cursor key and delete characters with the or the key. The hexadecimal and ascii lines are updated at the same time. Pressing starts the search at the current cursor position. *** NOTE *** The search is case sensitive. g repeats the search with the actual search string from the current cursor position. x exits the program. let you enter all the above functions. WARNING: I will take no responsability for the lost of any data. I suggest to make a backup-copy of the files you will modify. I hope you enjoy the program. Let me know all bugs and suggestions.
