+ Offsets are calculated relative to the base message, before any injections or other
+ transforms are applied. They have 3 flavors:
+ Literal values are specified as a quoted strings:
+ Either single or double quotes are accepted, and quotes can be escaped with backslashes
+ within the string:
+ Literal values can contain Python-style backslash escape sequences:
+ You can load a value from a specified file path. To do so, you have to specify a
+ _staticdir_ option to pathod on the command-line, like so:
+
+ All paths are relative paths under this directory. File loads are indicated by starting
+ the value specifier with the left angle bracket:
+ The path value can also be a quoted string, with the same syntax as literals:
+ An @-symbol lead-in specifies that generated data should be used. There are two components
+ to a generator specification - a size, and a data type. By default pathod
+ assumes a data type of "bytes".
+ Here's a value specifier for generating 100 bytes:
+
+
+ Language Spec
+ The mini-language at the heart of pathoc and pathod.

+ Generated values
+
+ @100
+
+ You can use standard suffixes to indicate larger values. Here, for instance, is a + specifier for generating 100 megabytes: +
+ +@100m+ +
+ Data is generated and served efficiently - if you really want to send a terabyte + of data to a client, pathod can do it. The supported suffixes are: +
+ +| b | +1024**0 (bytes) | +
| k | +1024**1 (kilobytes) | +
| m | +1024**2 (megabytes) | +
| g | +1024**3 (gigabytes) | +
| t | +1024**4 (terabytes) | +
+ Data types are separated from the size specification by a comma. This specification + generates 100mb of ASCII: +
+ +@100m,ascii+ +
Supported data types are:
+ +| ascii | +All ASCII characters | +
| ascii_letters | +A-Za-z | +
| ascii_lowercase | +a-z | +
| ascii_uppercase | +A-Z | +
| bytes | +All 256 byte values | +
| digits | +0-9 | +
| hexdigits | +0-f | +
| octdigits | +0-7 | +
| punctuation | +
+ !"#$%&\'()*+,-./:;
+ <=>?@[\\]^_`{|}~

| whitespace | +
