( o) ( o) Lookin 4.0 (19940308)
^
\_____/ by Stephen D. Childers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Program Description:
1) LookIn will let you look at the data from any location within a
file, data will be displayed in hex. Printable characters will
also be displayed in text format after the hex data format,
unprintable characters will be displayed as a period.
2) Can only be used from CLI. Can be made resident.
3) Program (when run from CLI) will interact with the 'c:Why' command
after program failures; this command may provide a more detailed
explanation of why the program failed. The 'Why' command should be
used immediately after a program failure to extract the last
program's result code, because that result code is changed upon the
execution of the next CLI command.
4) Certain error reports will contain the name of the argument, file,
device, (etc) that is associated with failure when it occurs.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
CLI Usage:
> LookIn [!|?] [[-options] file location range]
! = show author info
? = show some help
-options a = Do not show address line number
c = Show as hex for C compiler, will set option a
t = Do not show text portion at end of hex data
file = Any file.
location = The location offset (hex or decimal) within file.
The range of input values are:
Hex = H1 to H7fffffff
Decimal = 1 to 2147483647
Hex value must be preceded with 'h'
range = The amount of file data to show. An optional keyword
"end" may be used here for displaying data from the
location to end of file.
CLI Example:
ie > Looken -ct Looken 1 end
or > Looken >rad:test -ct Looken 1 end
