I generate a hardcopy (C-a h) of an ncurses screen which has some formatting on it (boxes, highlights).
If I "cat" the file, i get only text.
If I do a
, then i see a lot of control characters where the boxes are.
shows me a hexdump of the file.
prompts that its a binary file, and then shows me the boxes as control characters (as in the cat pipe less)
Is there some utility or setting that would show me the file just like when I see it inside the app, or close to it.
I've attached the file as a .txt file.
(I am using the screen that comes with OS X, 10.5.8 PPC btw - I used GNU in the subject for searching)
Hi all,
Is there a way of viewing a binary file through a UNIX session? Or perhaps viewing information of a binary file through a session?
thanks (2 Replies)

After I do CTRL-" to show all of my screen sessions, I typically use the up and down arrows to navigate up and down.
Suddenly this has changed, and instead only "j" and "k" seem to work for up and down.
This has changed in the middle of my screen session. First one changed, and then the... (1 Reply)
