Initial commit

This is essentially a gutted fork of nncmpp that doesn't do anything.

+hex
+===
+
+'hex' is yet another hex viewer.  As of now, there are no advantages to it.
+
+Plans
+-----
+In the future, it should be able to automatically interpret fields within files
+via a set of Lua scripts.
+
+Packages
+--------
+Regular releases are sporadic.  git master should be stable enough.  You can get
+a package with the latest development version from Archlinux's AUR, or from
+openSUSE Build Service for the rest of mainstream distributions.  Consult the
+list of repositories and their respective links at:
+
+https://build.opensuse.org/project/repositories/home:pjanouch:git
+
+Building and Running
+--------------------
+Build dependencies: CMake, pkg-config, help2man, liberty (included),
+                    termo (included) +
+Runtime dependencies: ncursesw, libunistring
+
+ $ git clone --recursive https://github.com/pjanouch/hex.git
+ $ mkdir hex/build
+ $ cd hex/build
+ $ cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
+ $ make
+
+To install the application, you can do either the usual:
+
+ # make install
+
+Or you can try telling CMake to make a package for you.  For Debian it is:
+
+ $ cpack -G DEB
+ # dpkg -i hex-*.deb
+
+Note that for versions of CMake before 2.8.9, you need to prefix `cpack` with
+`fakeroot` or file ownership will end up wrong.
+
+Having the program installed, optionally create a configuration file and run it.
+
+Configuration
+-------------
+Create _~/.config/hex/hex.conf_ with contents like the following:
+
+....
+colors = {
+	header     = ""
+	highlight  = "bold"
+	bar        = "reverse"
+	bar_active = "ul"
+	even       = ""
+	odd        = ""
+	selection  = "reverse"
+}
+....
+
+Terminal caveats
+----------------
+This application aspires to be as close to a GUI as possible.  It expects you
+to use the mouse (though it's not required).  Terminals are, however, somewhat
+tricky to get consistent results on, so be aware of the following:
+
+ - use a UTF-8 locale to get finer resolution progress bars and scrollbars
+ - Xterm needs `XTerm*metaSendsEscape: true` for the default bindings to work
+ - urxvt's 'vtwheel' plugin sabotages scrolling
+
