Hello PLUG

I am looking for a software tool that works like the old list.com program 
that all us old DOS programmers might have used. The functions I found to 
my liking are the simple file browsing, file viewing with or without 
screen wrapping, hex/ ascii display junk filter, etc. 

I have looked at MC and it's interface is toooo clumsy, this is why I 
gave up on xtree in all its various colours. Dumphex will not give my an 
output that is usable. I have read man but for the life of me can not get 
it to give me a line like:

0000 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 41 42 43 44 45 46 012345678ABCDEF

The best I have got is a hex display without the ascii but it was all 
byte reversed so I could not use it to debug an output file. 

May be I need to roll my own in PERL. 

Regards Navarre
