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.
To avoid this behaviour use:
stty dsusp undef
