Firstly thanks a lot to reply my question. I will search expect but before that ı want to try your suggestion but the thing i did not understand how can i write the command on vi editor for ctrl+D or enter. For example when i write:
^D or "^D" ; ^M or "^M" or '^M'
these commands do nothing when ı execute the script. for example ^D should exit or ^M should jump another bash but they do nothing. how can i make them do smthg or how can i make the computer press enter or ctrl+D
Thanks a lot

When running MC in xterm or gnome-terminal, it doesn't seem to allow the use of Ctrl-enter and Ctr-shift-enter to copy marked files to the command line.
Does anyone know of another way to cause this to happen or a way to enable it under xterm/gnome-term?

HEXCURSE(1) General Commands Manual HEXCURSE(1)
NAME
hexcurse - an ncurses-based hex editor
SYNOPSIS
hexcurse [ -? | -help ] [ -a ] [ -r rnum ] [ -o outputfile ] [ [ -i ] inputfile ]
DESCRIPTION
hexcurse is an ncurses-based hexeditor utility that is able to open, modify, and save a file to disk while providing useful editing and
searching options.
OPTIONS
-? | -help Prints out the command usage info
-a Specifies the addresses to be output in decimal format initially.
-r rnum Specifies the number of characters per line that the hexeditor should output. If rnum is either less than 1 or greater than
the columns of the current terminal, hexcurse will fill the terminal width, just as if the -r was not specified.
-o outputfile Specifies the output file to be written to by default.
[-i] inputfile Specifies the input file to be read in. -i is not needed if inputfile is the last argument on the line.
INTERACTIVE OPTIONS
F1 | ctrl+? Shows key command help.
F2 | ctrl+s Save the current file.
F3 | ctrl+o Opens a file.
F4 | ctrl+g Goto a certain location in the current file. Depending on which way the addresses are being viewed at the moment, the
search will behave differently. If the addresses are currently in hex format, the search will search as if the input was
given in hexadecimal format. If the addresses are in decimal format, the function will search for the address in decimal.
F5 | ctrl+f Search for a certain string in the current file. Depending on which window the user is currently editing in, this search
will behave differently. If editing in the hex window, the input should only be in hexadecimal, and it will search for the
hexadecimal "string." If the current editing window is the ASCII window, the input should be ASCII characters, and the
search will find that ASCII string in the file.
F6 | ctrl+a Switch between hexadecimal address values and decimal address values.
F7 | TAB Switch between the hexadecimal and ASCII editing windows.
F8 | ctrl+q | ctrl+x
Exit out of the program.
Page Up | ctrl+u
Scroll one 'page' up.
Page Down | ctrl+d
Scroll one 'page' down.
Home | ctrl+t Returns to the top of the file.
End | ctrl+b Jumps to the bottom of the file.
ctrl+z Undo the last modification. Can be used multiple times.
Esc Escapes out of the save, open, goto, and find prompts.

BUGS
On some terminals the function keys will not work.
Support for resizable terminals is still a bit rudimentary. At this time, when the terminal is resized, the cursor is positioned at the
beginning of the file. This will be corrected in the next release. There is also an issue where the labels on the bottom of the screen do
not resize correctly. A fix for the latter is in the works.

TODO
When we get the time, we would like to implement the ability to insert and delete data from the file. Please e-mail us with any additional
suggestions.
