A: Mail me your ideas and also don't forget to tell me the benefits. You may also post them in the forum: http://forum.mh-nexus.de Q: I found a bug. How should I report it? A: Please use the "Bugs"-section in the support-forum: http://forum.mh-nexus.de Try to give as many details as possible, especially describe the necessary steps to reproduce the bug. Q: I would like to translate HxD. What should I do? A: Translations are very welcome! Please contact me and I will send you the

necessary language files and the translation program. Q: The RAM-Editor shows many ? (question marks), what do they mean? A: Question marks represent inaccessible sections of the virtual memory. This happens either because this memory-section is not allocated or it is protected. Programs usually only use a small amount of the 4 GB range they could use. The data-folding feature should help you to navigate: it hides all inaccessible memory-sections by default. Q: Why does the TeX-Exporter sometimes produce output containing errors? A: It is very hard to tell LaTeX to set all characters of the Windows 1252 charset as it should. I tried to fix some issues, but there are still characters that do not work. If you have any deeper knowledge on this, feel free to contact me. Q: Will there be more printing options? A: This depends on how much interest there is. If you want more features, mail me.
