Decimal numbers in the main window
You can change a byte's value by entering a decimal number in the
Decimal View.
The Decimal View uses unsigned 8-bit integers. Each decimal value
represents one byte, and has one, two, or three digits. The minimum value is 0 and the maximum
value is 255.
Typing 101 in the Decimal View will set the value of a byte to 101 (the character e).
Typing an e in the Text View, or 65 in the Hexadecimal View, has the same result.
Decimal numbers in different data types
Here you find the specifications of the decimal numbers that are shown in the
Data Types Editor.
Use Data Types to Clipboard of the Extra Menu to copy
them to the clipboard as text. Use
Data Types from Clipboard of the Extra Menu to paste
them to the file, if the clipboard contains these numbers as text.
