I. SUMMARY
==========
XVI32 is a free hex-editor with the following main features:
- New: Runs on systems with > 2 GB virtual memory

- Simplified search for Unicode Latin (UTF-16) strings
- Script commands BITNOT, BITAND, BITOR, BITXOR, BITSHL, BITSHR

for complete file and selected block (only if block is currently
selected)
- Data inspector to view decoded numbers
- Built-in script interpreter! Refer to online help for details
- Easily works with huge files. Try to open a 60 MB sized text
file with some other hex editor (not to speak about Wordpad),
then use XVI32...
- XVI32 allows to edit files up to 2 GB (enough virtual memory
provided, of course)
- For your convenience, XVI32 stores settings and last used
search strings etc. in XVI32.INI file
- Progress indication in percent for most operations
- You can abort nearly all operations (reading/writing files,
search, replace, print...)

representation
- Two synchronous cursors in text and hex area
- Fully resizeable window (change number of rows and columns)
- Font and font size adjustable
- Overwrite or insert characters

- Search text or hex string, e.g. find "this text" or
find "0D 0A"
- Search optionally with joker char, e.g. find "A.C" or
"00 2E 2E 00" where "." = "2E" (user-defined) stands for
any character
- Fast searching algorithm (Quicksearch) for both search
directions (down/up)
- Count occurences of text or hex string
- Replace text or hex string, e.g. replace "0D 0A" by "0A"
or replace "0D 0A" by text "EOL"
- Extremely fast "replace all" mode (if needed, additional
memory is allocated beforehead, not at every single
replacing operation)
- Auto-fill feature to copy bytes from current address into
input field for hex string using right arrow key
- Character conversion using self-defined character table
- Easy converting of text to hex string in dialogs
(e.g. "abc" -> "61 62 63")
- Decoding and encoding of 1, 2, 4, and 8 byte integers
or 4/8 byte floats in 2 possible byte orders
- Bit manipulation (view or set bits)
- Open file in Read Only mode (e.g. if opened by another application or to avoid
unintentional modifications)

II. REQUIREMENTS
================
XVI32 is a 32 bit application and requires Windows 9x or Windows NT.
III. INSTALLATION
=================
No special installation procedure is required. Just unzip the file XVI32.ZIP
which contains the following files:
XVI32.EXE executable
XVI32U.HLP help file
XVI32U.CNT help contents file
*.XCT 6 character conversion tables (XCT files),
e.g. to convert DOS codepage 850 to Windows
codepage 1252 (refer to online help for details)
README.TXT this file
Copy these files into a directory of your choice. No data will be written
to registry, no DLLs are copied to your hard disk. The user defined settings
are stored in a file XVI32.INI which is located in the same directory as the
executable. If you want to open any file with XVI32 from Windows Explorer,
you can create a link as described in online help.
IV. UNINSTALL XVI32
===================
To uninstall XVI32 completely, proceed as follows:
1. If you have created a shortcut link in the SendTo folder, start
XVI32, go to the options dialog (Tools | Options... | Shortcut link)
and click on the remove button. Under Windows NT, every user
must log in and perform this task. It is also possible to remove
the link(s) manually (under Win 9x C:\Windows\SendTo, under NT
C:\WINNT\Profiles\<USER>\SendTo).
2. Exit XVI32 and delete the complete folder where XVI32 was
installed.
