+	This is the latest release of BEAV.   I am posting it to alt.sources
+because I my posting to comp.sources.unix has not been released by the 
+moderator.   It has sat in the mill for over 3 months.   I would like
+to find an archive for the source.   If someone would like to archive it
+and tell me where I would be most appreciative.    If this is not propper
+protocol please excuse me, I am reletively new to news.
+
+	This release 1.20 of BEAV (Binary Editor And Viewer),
+a full featured binary file editor.	  Just about any operation that 
+you could want to do to a binary file is possible with BEAV.   You 
+can insert or delete in the middle of a file thereby changing it's size.
+You can display and edit data in hex, octal, decimal, binary, ascii, 
+or ebcdic formats.   You can display data in byte, word, or long word 
+formats in either Intel or Motorola byte ordering.   You can send the 
+formatted display mode to a file or printer.
+
+      Version 1.20  (3/10/91)  of  beav  contains  the  following
+fixes and enhancements;
+
+*           Under   unix   files   are  created  with  read/write
+      permissions.
+
+*           Fixed the  bug  in  the  terminal  I/O  routine  that
+      caused  beav  to  spin  rather  than  give  up control when
+      waiting for a character.
+
+*           Added the ANSI #define that was missing for MSDOS.
+
+*           Changed the D16 #define to a unsigned short.
+
+*           Called ttclose on error exit.
+
+*           Check and limit ncol and nrow to  the  actual  screen
+      array size.
+
+*           Add  the  ability  to  load  key bindings from a file
+      automatically under MSDOS and unix.
+
+*           Add delete current window command.
+
+*           Support VT100 type function keys.
+
+	BEAV is based on the source for emacs for display and keyboard handling 
+functions.   The binary file handling and display formats are special
+to BEAV.   There is a full manual included in this release.   There
+are makefiles for unix, xenix 286, and MSC 5.1 under DOS.   The old Wang PC
+is supported.   This has been tested on 286 and 386 PC's under SCO UNIX and
+XENIX as well as under UNIX on a MIPS system.
+	I am willing to maintain BEAV and will entertain suggestions for
+modifications and/or bug fixes.   I can be reached at;
