NAME
dhex_markers – marker file for dhex
DESCRIPTION
Bookmarks for dhex(1) are stored in marker files. This manpage describes the format of those marker files.
EXAMPLE
A typical marker file looks like this:
‘#DHEX MARKERS’
‘#VERSION 0’
‘#lines are all in hex’
‘#relative positions are =, +, -’
‘=0000000000000000’
‘=0000000000001000’
‘=0000000000002000’
‘+0000000000001000’
‘+0000000000002000’
‘-0000000000001000’
‘-0000000000002000’
‘=00000005334ffeba’
‘=00000000DEADBEEF’
‘+000000000000BABE’
OPTIONS
In the example above, the file has two sections: A comment section, and a bookmark section.
Comments
Comments are indicated with a '#' character. Everything afterwards in a line is being ignored when parsing the file
Bookmark section
Bookmarks can be either absolute or relative. Lines with absolute bookmarks are starting with '=', the relative ones with '+' or '-'. The value is a 64 bit hexadecimal one.
There should always be 10 bookmarks per file.
