Text has a lot of advantages - I know as I had to debug OSI binary protocols - You had to dump it out to a textual representation. unless you had spent years

Text has a lot of advantages - I know as I had to debug OSI binary protocols - You had to dump it out to a textual representation. unless you had spent years and could read the protocol in its binary form
