Author | Topic: How do you open files in binary format?
Raider Of Tombs' Clone Member Posts: 63 From:The mining ship Red Dwarf Registered: Oct 2001 | posted 11-08-2001 01:13 PM How do you open files in binary format so all you see is the 0's and 1's? I am aware that a zero and a one on the screen is comprised of much more than a zero or one, and is in .txt format, bla bla... But I am confused. How do you open a file - any file - and view it in binary form? Furthermore, how would you go about re-saving it so it will still open with the intended application? IP: Logged

I am learning programming by the way, but I can't program a tool until I know how to get into a file to modify it at the most basic level! IP: Logged
