About

ATBinHex is a control that implements the quick file (stream) viewer. Only visible part of file (or stream) is loaded into viewer, so it's suitable to show files of unlimited size.

Original Delphi code is used for a long time inside "Universal Viewer" application.

Author: Alexey Torgashin

Limitations of Lazarus port

• Some features were disabled via ATBinHexOptions.inc file (searching of text, printing, RegEx highlighting of URLs).
• Removed method OpenFile, because it used Win32 API; use OpenStream instead.

View modes

There are 5 view modes available:

Text: file is shown in text form

Binary: file is shown in binary form (with fixed line length)

Hex: file is shown in hex dump

Unicode: Unicode contents of file is shown

Unicode/Hex: combined Hex and Unicode modes
