View file inside archive in binary form

As it is mentioned in the Automatic opening document stored inside archive, BCArchive allows users to open documents stored inside encrypted archive so that the following steps are performed automatically:

• extracting the document to temporary directory;
• running an appropriate program to edit the document;
• making the program opening the document;
• waiting while the user works with the document;
• as soon as the user closes the file, BCArchive overwrites it in the archive and securely deletes (wipe) temporary copy of the document.

If a user wants just to take a quick look at some file stored inside the archive, he/she can avoid the procedure described above. BCArchive has an embedded binary viewer, which allows users to view contents of any file stored inside archive. To run the viewer, browse the file inside archive, press right mouse button and run the Hex view command from appeared context menu. The following window demonstrates how text document looks in the BCArchive binary viewer.
