Description Anton Kochkov 2011-05-20 08:21:31 UTC
BEYE (Binary EYE) is a multiplatform, portable viewer of binary files with a built-in editor that functions in binary, hexadecimal and disassembler modes. It uses native Intel syntax for disassembly. Features include an AVR/Java/x86-i386-AMD64/ARM-XScale/PPC64 disassemblers, a Russian code pages converter, full preview of MZ, NE, PE, NLM, COFF32, ELF formats, partial preview of a.out, LE and LX, Phar Lap formats, and a code navigator.

As biew have changed its name, because of  of negative associations of "bview" word, do you think it's better change package name too?

<Beye was born in 1994 and had the name: "biew". Later (February 2010) it was renamed into: "beye" because its name had some negative associations in English.> // Wikipedia

Any update on this rename?
Comment 7 Anton Kochkov 2018-03-09 04:24:14 UTC
That program is effectively dead. Closing this bug. Moreover it make sense to remove the biew package and recommend to use alternatives.
