/** the beginner's hex edit widget ;)
  *
  * It hides the concept of the KDataBuffer and accepts a pure pointer
  * to a reasonable large array of bytes
  *
  * 1. used as viewer
  *    a) static data ranges -> no changes for data pointer and length
  *       possible changes are told to the widget by repaintRange
  *    b) changing data ranges -> data pointer and length might change
  *       changes told by
  *       * resetData( char *, int size, bool repaint );
  *       *
  * 2. used as editor
  *    a) static data ranges
  *       data pointer stays the same
  *    b) changing data ranges
  *       pointer to the data changes in charge of the widget:
  *       given pointer and intermediate pointer are possibly invalid
  *       problem: who cares about the array if the data is deleted?
  *       -> solved by setAutoDelete()
