Viewing data piped from stdin

Open chrisvest opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

We need fseek(3) for navigating, so we'll probably have to pipe the data into a temporary file and open a hex view on that.

Can we move data lazily as we read towards the end? Asynchronous IO would be helpful here, to avoid the involvement of threads.

Putting this on ice for now, since it would require a big change to the architecture, or be something completely different on the side.

I just hit this. I would love to see this supported.
