BVI - Binary visual editor ========================== http://bvi.sourceforge.net/ This editor for binary files was written by Gerhard Buergmann and is distributed under the GPL (GNU Public License). How to compile ============== You need the curses (ncurses) library for cursor movement on your system. https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-install-ncurses-library-headers-on-debian-ubuntu-centos-fedora/ gunzip -c bvi-1.4.1.src.tar.gz | tar xvf - cd bvi-1.4.1 ./configure make make install MAC OS X ======== Looks like the curses implementation in Darwin is really limited. You should install and use ncurses instead. You can download it from ftp.gnu.org; install it and then use ./configure --with-ncurses=/usr/local/ncurses-5.2 The Control-y key sequence suspends bvi and send it to the background.
