Which hex editor do you use
>>101565143okteta
>>101565143ghex, it just werks
Hex "Maniac" Editor.(HxD on Windows, Okteta on Linux).
>>101565143imhex is the best
>>101565184>gay hex uses GTK (Gender Transition Toolkit)filtered foot fag
>>101565143gnu poke
>>101565220What's wrong with gtk?
>>101565313It's slow, sluggish, over engineered, cpu hungry, badly coded dinosaur and the worse thing is, it's made by GNOME devs.
>>101565313nothing.
>>101565364>©lueless
>>101565436What's the use case for © instead of C?
The build in Windows hex editor
>>101565520To indicate copyright instead of celsius
>>101565143GNU Emacs
>>101565143emacs.
any hexeditor where I can change the decoded section? I know imhex works but wondering if there is something more native looking. I am still surprised that isn't a common feature.
>>101565358And what the fuck have you made besides hello_world.py?
>>101565561What's this?
>>101565143hexdump
>>101565165>oktetacan it do diffs?
>>101565143hexlify-buffer or :%!xxd depending on which editor I'm using
>>101565143DEBUG.COM.
>>101566767It's the hex viewer (not an editor at all) from DOS Shell.
Always used HxD, good for everything: recovering data from a flash drive, destroying Windows VMs etc.
Frhed for Windows.I don't remember anymore why I downloaded this software.
>>101565561>drdos>windows builtin>t. retarded tourist
>>101565143Is ghidra safe
>>101565143https://hexed.it
>>101565942They asked what hex editor, not what your operating system is.
>>101565143hexdump + echo + dd
>>101565143hd(1)
>>101565143Wtf these things actually do something? I didn't know anybody in existence used hex editors. This is like hollow earth theory being true.
>>101565143I do not actually use them but I went through flatpak repository the other day and picked apps that I might one day need.so here they are in case if you need it.
>>101574333It's useful for overwriting strings in binary files
010 editor
>>101574333>t.not knoweryou have no idea anon. keep being ignorant.
>>101574333A single character in hexadecimal represents four bits, or a "nibble". Two of them makes a byte, meaning you don't need to set bytes' values one bit at a time when making edits, nor do you need to memorize altcodes and do it in Notepad. (Since you shat on hex editors, I can presume you're likely on Windows)
>>101574539Why? What's the use case? Literally what do these things do lol. I just remember using them a decade ago to give myself rare furni clientside on Habbo Hotel.
>>101574622Editing binary machine code, writing programs from the most hellish scratch you can justify, ya know, hacking and debugging.
>>101574622>Literally what do these things doit's literally in the name what do you mean
>>101574622imagine you want to crack a photoshop for linux. You open one of these bad boys and change isActivated to true.
>>101565220>four posts before mentioning trannies or trannismThis site is truly on the shitter.
>>101574622>>101574638don't listen to this anon, literally nobody in the universe uses a hex editor to write software or for debugging
>>101574658if they stop being culturally relevant then people will stop talking about them
>>101574659that is not true. Imagine you buy some chinese hardware that comes with weird proprietary software. You might use one of those to figure out what is the api to communicate with the thing you have bought.there are many use cases like this...
>>101574718you're thinking of a disassembler, a debugger, a network traffic analyzer, or any combination of the 3. literally nobody after the 1990s uses a hex editor for that
>>101574670maybe in ten to fifteen years.
>>101574622>Literally what do these things do lolanon.... you must be retarded. let me explain it to you: an hex editor lets you edit hex code.what you do with it is another matter.>>101574659>literally nobody in the universe uses a hex editor to write software or for debuggingit can help in some contexts. but you wouldn't know because you can't even google it, you lazy retard.
>>101574773>an hex editor lets you edit hex code>hex codeThis is the absolute state of /g/? It's worse than I thought jesus christ
>>101574735kek... you are right. if you develop an app that reads some proprietary binary files and lets you edit them it might be useful for that.I used one of those to reskin macos back in the day.you could edit a save file for a game or something.
>>101574896save files for modern games are just plain text files in json or yaml packed into a data archive that there are universal unpackers for that someone else wrote already
what about integrating HIEW into your windows image. one can write small assembly codes with it.those big GUI versions with bright white colors.. cant bear them for text work
>>101574815you know you can actually edit the hex code in an hex editor... but yeah, the point is changing bytes.
>>101575132saar...
>>101575156>pedantic retards wants to argue to feel superiorkys fag
>>101565143whats a hex editor
>>101575025Bruh. Who even cares about save files in modern games? There's three kinds of modern games - Indie, cinematic slop, and esports.
>>101565143Windows calculator
>>101565143>Which hex editor do you use?Notepad
>>101565143HxD won
>>101574622They make you feel like a 1337 h4x0r.
>>101565143xxr -r -p > file
>>101576397the most sane looking desu
>>101576332this, but only because I'm lazy. Other than that, the hex editor in notepad is buggy as shit. It often fails copying / pasting, or just straight up copies the data wrong
>>101577041werks4meMust be a skill issue.
>>101577117No U
>>101565143notepad
>>101565143 (OP)imhex, but hexdump is more than enough for viewing only
