* Added "setup wizard" and some info on IMAP to prefs-e-mail.html. IMAP is a bit broken, as was recently found out, so I'll leave it all at that for now. * Moved every localization-dependent image into a mirror image folder under its language (ATM there's only "en"). Only neutral images like icons remain directly under /docs/userguide/images. * Changed all image links accordingly. * Removed all height and width attributes to ease exchanging images. Only fixed size images (icons) will retain them for faster loading. * Added a special pre.terminal for printouts to save ink. Thanks Rob Tijssen for that suggestion. git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@31622 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96

<p>DiskProbe is a HEX editor to view and alter data of a file or on a device on a byte-level. It's a very low-level tool and has therefore the potential to really mess things up if you're not careful!</p>
|
|
<div class="box-warning">Always work with the backup of a file and be extra careful when working directly on a device.</div>
|
|
<p>When starting DiskProbe you'll first be asked for the file or the device to work on. After that you are presented with this interface:</p>
|
|
</p><p><img id="diskprobe" src="../images/apps-images/diskprobe.png" alt="diskprobe.png" /></p>
|
|
<p>The main view shows always one block of data, the size of which can be adjusted with <span class="menu">View | BlockSize</span>. To the left is the offset to the start of the block, in the middle the data as HEX values and to the right the same as ASCII symbols.<br />
|
|
You can move from block to block with the slider above or with <span class="key">ALT</span> <span class="key">←</span> and <span class="key">ALT</span> <span class="key">→</span> and switch between the HEX and ASCII columns with <span class="key">TAB</span>.</p>
|
|
<p><span class="menu">Block | Selection</span> will not only show the selection with different endianess (and different radix), it will also interprete the selection as a block offset that you can jump to. It will be grayed out if the position is outside of the file/device.<br />
|
|
This is a handy feature mostly when looking at file systems, as they often contain pointers to other blocks.</p>
|
|
<p>If the file you're probing includes attributes, the <span class="menu">Attributes</span> menu can be used to open any of them in a new DiskProbe window. Here's the copyright attribute of the <span class="app">AboutSystem</span> application:
|
|
</p><p><img id="diskprobe-attribute" src="../images/apps-images/diskprobe-about-attr.png" alt="diskprobe-about-attr.png" /></p>
|
|
<p>Depending on the kind of attribute, you'll get a different editor tab besides the always present <i>Raw Editor</i>. For example, there are editors for strings and MIME types or an icon viewer for the vectoricon attribute.</p>
