[CentOS] Announcing the version 1.0 hexpeek release!
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA512 Announcing the version 1.0 hexpeek release! I am pleased to announce the first stable release of hexpeek, which seeks to be an efficient, powerful, and portable hex editor for files of all kinds and sizes. This release improves on the beta release with a live undo, a greatly increased backup depth, better support for writing to non-seekable files, and some miscellaneous cleanup. Visit https://www.hexpeek.com for more information. Out of respect for the bandwidth on this mailing list, I do not plan to announce future hexpeek releases here. There is a mailing list on https://www.hexpeek.com where future announcements will be posted. If you are interested in hexpeek becoming a package/port for your distro, please let me know. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- iQJIBAEBCgAyFiEEfeRsn/lRU2hTiGbecMFr/kefAX8FAl8qMysUHGhleHBlZWtA aGV4cGVlay5jb20ACgkQcMFr/kefAX9U9w//QlTM/zrd25att9/yYcqbQPkDAqhr sjCtSfMoY6sLlsI1IFR1GDu0v0l+TiW4R2iDDn8dD7esLBrhHXe+QLWd9OjioCF7 jB3Tpg+ozk9GMmwDFglbU6hiwTAM4w7O4NKrLEuR/kQoWZzweEXGjIV2ytWhCpps tsl3c/t2rSG0SqlhcHrQpy0uZ38v7f7+o3BCH23gqzdAW+mvvPC9iYLfYJqUGDRt fc5zmouLai9ZAARpqK3Mhu/RTlv8DnxpmsIt2cSJ6OFVbonKBqvDk1RFbLqSUwhU iJv+wMF97f2HT7g1RCNG+GGClD0TvceFP+8qhwIYUhBaRXLe1u+gEEqXvmlURd0h m77ydS58Z1ND1YGw01rTTBzDxnW21HHTFCqGHfRKOjVcLEQrt8CkTvcf7tM5fX+n fodXdEv8k8rrhbOYDyWqurdekWPZCrvrzEPuF+Ww/W6ownW8RwP2cgNccfOiuC2P dTJdIe5j4VASLtC17iUcwDiQuZYWdK5oBlf/ws9flInFHOlGVUGXuD1pum05Iq1u OZeJEHJj+yvP1drm4A1O8z3r8XfPa2WmWsQBc0TP8lOvU3l/E20p1T3TPs8EQbqA dRJyN1PcAv63DE0USa2P+tB18jZkvDV15YT/6yDkOtKEgIdtSsw6H5oscs96LfuI cKK++c04aRN9e28= =02ro -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] hex editor for huge files
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA512 hexpeek: a hex editor for huge files Occasionally I need to work with huge binary files. Over the years I've tried many different tools and never found one that was exactly what I wanted. In my experience most hex editors either (1) do not work well with 4GB+ files or (2) require the user to learn a curses interface and are not scriptable. So I ended up creating a hex editor with some nice features: 1. prompt interface with command history (with libedit) 2. scriptable interface with a flexible command language 3. no glitches on huge files -- no reading until user requests 4. fully functional insert and delete 5. multi-level backup and restore 6. ability to dump generic file descriptors 7. work in hexadecimal and with 64 bit file offsets by default 8. BSD 3-clause license 9. and more... If interested, please check out the project at https://www.hexpeek.com or send e-mail to hexp...@hexpeek.com. hexpeek is known to work on Debian, CentOS, FreeBSD, and Cygwin and is expected to work on any recent POSIX-like system. I look forward to improving hexpeek based on community feedback. Please let me know what features you are looking for in a hex/metadata editor.
