binary.datatype

							Written by Stefan Ruppert


This is a binary data type for using in MultiView or similar programs !

The datatype loads any binary file and displays it in a hex format !

This is a base datatype, thus it uses no orginal Commodore datatype as
it's base ! And therefore I have some problems :
	- First I have no datatypesclass documenation
	- the datatype renders itself before the gadgets . Why ?

If anybody knows, how to fix this problem, please contact me. Thanks !

The datatype supports now the DTM_WRITE and DTM_PRINT methods.

From V39.11 it supports searching of strings with some new methods !
The interface to the user is done by the trigger methods :
return (STM_ACTIVATE_FIELD) - opens a requster to let the user input a string
										(needs reqtools.library V38 !)
'<' (STM_BROWSE_PREV) - searchs backwards from the last position.
'>' (STM_BROWSE_NEXT) - searchs forwards from the last position.

Because the string requester must be asyncron (input.device), I have some
problems with refreshing after the string was found. Sometimes there are
3 Enforcer-Hits WORD-READ on refreshing the vertical Multiview slider !
I have no idea why this happens !

This datatype is Freeware, but not in the public domain !

It's strictly forbidden to include this archive in any kind of software
collection except Fred Fish's AmigaLibrary, Aminet , Aminet CD's and BBS
Fileareas !

This datatype was created using some example code from the Developer 3.1
Kit and the bmp.datatype from David N. Junod.

This software is provided "as is". No representations or warranties are

or operation of this software, and all use is at your own risk !

You can install this datatype by using the Installer script.If you have
