+<para>When a document is opened, the bytes are displayed in hexadecimal format
+in the data editor window. The data can be edited, cut, copied, pasted, dragged
+and dropped much as text is in an text editor or word processor. A cursor marks
+the current position. Pressing the <keycap>Insert</keycap> key toggles between
+overwrite and insert text entry modes. The data can also be displayed as octal,
+binary or decimal values, by choosing the desired format in the
+<guimenu>View</guimenu> menu.</para>
+
+<para>The offset column on the left indicates the position of a particular byte
+in the file. The text field on the right displays the <acronym>ASCII</acronym>
+encoding of the file. The cursor position and edits in the data editor window
+are reflected in the text field. The text field can also be edited, and those
+changes are reflected in the data editor window.</para>
+
+<para>The search bar allows the user to search for a specific value --
+hexadecimal, octal, binary, decimal or text.</para>
+
+<para>The conversion field displays the value of the byte at the cursor position
+in a variety of bases. It also displays the value of all standard data types
+starting at the cursor.</para>
+
+<para>Multiple documents can be open at the same time but only one can be
+active. Use the <guimenu>Documents</guimenu> menu to select which document will
+be active.</para>
