Let's bake support for launching directly into #lucybz IRC straight into the VMU!

#hexeditor #dreamcast #vmu #lucybz #irc

A hex editor interface running on the dreamcast (with nice crisp characters in VGA mode).

The screen is filled with columns of repeating hex characters in the center, with addresses to the left and string equivalents to the right.

The cursor is currently at offset 0x00336, which is the beginning of the irc.lucy.bz hostname, now entered into memory.

Which editor do you guys recommend using on which platform? Is there any app that works on all three? (#Linux, , )

Don't really need anything too fancy, also don't mind paying for a really well supported and quality app.

I've been looking at 010 (sweetscape.com/010editor) as well as HexEd.it. First one seems really powerful, but not sure I need that to edit bios and EC firmware files. Second is a web app with all due limits.

What’s your favorite #HexEditor on #Linux? 🤔

I can’t seem to find one with a good balance between “simple”, “able to interpret these 4 bytes as i32”, and “pulls in half of KDE/Gnome/Mono as a dependency”. 🤔

So far, I’m mostly using hexedit. (Some 20, 30 years ago, I used “Hex Workshop” on Windows. That was nice.)

Today's energy... There's gold in them, thar hills! Reverse engineering with a hex editor to mine a few more nuggets of content out of the Neuromancer PC game data files.

Screenshot of hex editor (ImHex) while reverse engineering the Neuromancer PC DOS game.

My wife's word processor crashed during saving, effectively deleting her 8000-word story WIP. But deleting something doesn't manually 0 out all the bytes, it just removes the reference to it and allows other programs to overwrite that memory. I found a #hexeditor that allowed me to browse the contents of her USB, including all this unallocated memory. From there, we were able to search for a character's name and find text chunks of different versions of the file...

@odoben Q: How would you do a blobcat command then?

Should it be like a #HexEditor or what?

I mean, I know why you want a #cat for #BinaryBlob|s and name it #blobcat...

And I'd certainly add it to @OS1's repo if it's license permits it...

Just let me know of it's #git so I can add it to the wishlist...

I've been using ImHex for the last few days on the recommendation of a colleague - it's fantastic! it feels like a modernized 010 editor. the pattern language is quite nice and i feel like I've hardly scratched the surface of all the features

github.com/WerWolv/ImHex

they have binaries available if you don't want to build it, it built easily if you want to build from scratch, and it's in homebrew repos if you have a Mac.

Making good progress on my #vim as #HexEditor project.
Right now it is slow when handing big files.

25% off the 010 #HexEditor until November 28: sweetscape.com/store/ (just a happy customer). I use the binary templates to make sense of file formats.
