ghex (hex editor with GTK+3 GUI)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
GHex allows the user to load data from any file, view and edit it in
|
||
|
|
either hex or ASCII. Useful for debugging problems with object code
|
||
|
|
or encodings. Also used by kids who cheat at computer games, by adding
|
||
|
|
score or lives to saved games.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Optional dependency: yelp. Required for viewing the built-in help
|
||
|
|
(Help->Contents, or F1 key). Alternatively, an HTML version of the
|
||
|
|
help is included in /usr/doc/ghex-$VERSION/html/index.html for your
|
||
|
|
perusal (in English only, though).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note: Trying to copy/paste arbitrary binary data into or out of
|
||
|
|
ghex isn't going to work very well, because modern GTK+ insists the
|
||
|
|
copy buffer has to be UTF-8 encoded Unicode. The result is lots
|
||
|
|
of "\Uffffffff" (meaning "Invalid UTF-8") rather than the binary
|
||
|
|
data. There's nothing we can do to fix this without major surgery.
