Fast 6-mode file viewer with streamed 64 KB Hex+ASCII, EXIF, PDF & archives
A fast multi-mode universal file viewer for Linux, serving as an independent open-source Linux alternative to Universal Viewer. Not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by UVViewSoft.
FEATURES • Tab 0 — 6-Mode Universal Viewer: Browse your real home or removable media via the compact directory and file tree, then inspect any file across 6 dedicated viewing engines: [1] Text (with syntax highlighting, font zoom, word wrap, and UTF-8 / Latin-1 / UTF-16 encoding selector), [2] Binary (streamed 64 KB page printable view), [3] Hex+ASCII (instantaneous 64 KB seek/read pagination for multi-megabyte binaries without full-file RAM load), [4] Image/EXIF (QPixmap zoom, fit, 90-degree rotation, and JPEG EXIF IFD metadata), [5] Office/PDF (PyPDF2 PDF, DOCX, XLSX, ODT, ODS, and EML text extraction), and [6] Archive/Audio (listing and extracting .zip, .7z, .tar*, and .rar archives, plus MP3 ID3, FLAC, and WAV tags). Includes a live Find Text / Hex Bytes bar streaming directly across disk chunks. • Tab 1 — Encoding / Hex Inspector & SHA-256: Side-by-side decoded text vs streamed 64 KB Hex+ASCII or secondary encoding comparator, BOM detection, and streaming SHA-256, MD5, and CRC32 hash computation. • Tab 2 — Mode Rules & Export Snippet: Configure extension-to-mode detection rules, Hex page size, default encoding, English / Vietnamese bilingual UI, and export text, streamed Hex+ASCII pages, or metadata tables to TXT/CSV.
