NAME

       shed - (Simple Hex EDitor)

SYNOPSIS

       SHED [OPTIONS] FILE

DESCRIPTION

       A simple hex editor with a pico-style interface.

       Each  line  of  the  shed display represents one byte of the file. Each
       lines consists of the offset of that byte from the start of  the  file,
       the  ascii  value  of  the  byte,  and then the byte’s value in various
       bases. All values are unsigned.

       When a command asks you for input, entering  a  zero-length  string  or
       pressing  ^C will cancel the command.  When searching, entering a zero-
       length string will use the previous search word, if one exists.

       Note that there is no save key. This is because the file is not  loaded
       into memory, so when you edit it the change is made directly to disk.
