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.
