vim-binary-reader

Use xxd to read binary files. When the file extension is empty, I will check the file is binary or not, and then I use xxd to open the file if it's a binary file. When the file has an extension, I will use g:vim_binary_reader_extensions variable to check it's a binary file or not.

setting

g:vim_binary_reader_disable disable this plugin.
The default value is 0.

g:vim_binary_reader_extensions the binary file extensions. It's a regex pattern.
The default value:

let g:vim_binary_reader_extensions = "^\(bin\|dat\|mp3\|mp4\|o\|a\|so\|exe\|class\)$"

requirment

• perl(use :echo has('perl') to check your vim support perl or not)
• xxd(use echo executable('xxd') to check your system has xxd or not)
