Hex Editor Neo is a set of hexadecimal development tools for Windows, combining advanced binary files editing capability with new level of performance and usability.īasic features include, data editing, exchanging data with other applications through the clipboard, inserting new data and deleting existing data and others.Īdvanced features include multiple selection, visual operations history with branching, powerful Find All and Replace All commands, support for multiple encodings, Goto and Fill commands, NTFS alternate data sreams support, bookmarks, data inspector, checksum calculation, statistics and file structure analysis capabilities. So, depending on your needs, one of these editors should "fill the gap": HxD with its comprehensive feature-set, the convenience of Visual Studio's built-in Binary Editor, or the portability and scripting tools of XVI32.Edit Your Hex Code, Modify Binary Data and Files
XVI32 can downloaded from the XVI32 homepage. To make up for its block selection deficiency, XVI32 includes bookmarking features and better yet, a scripting engine for automation of editing tasks: Selections in XVI32 are made using the Shift and arrow keys for short selections or using Shift in concert with PgUp/PgDn for larger blocks of data. These settings are found in XVI32's Options menu.Īlthough XVI32 is powerful, block selection cannot be made using a mouse, a feature supported by HxD and Visual Studio. But since the help file isn't an absolute necessity, XVI32 can still run even if the WinHlp32 viewer isn't installed on a Windows 8 host machine.Īlso, before you start editing with XVI32, I highly recommend limiting the number of rows and columns displayed by the editor to sixteen bytes (or multiple) for readability purposes. However, I did find one tiny portability issue other users of Windows 8 may experience: Before I was able to view XVI32's help file, I needed to install WinHlp32 from Microsoft's Download Center. So if you need a portable hex editor that can be ran from a USB stick or SD card, XVI32 is a perfect choice.
But perhaps the biggest strength of XVI32 lies in its portability: XVI32 doesn't use an installer - the application is extracted from a zip file - therefore XVI32 can be ran directly from its extraction folder. XVI32 is a freeware hex editor which sports excellent block editing features such as Delete, Copy, Overwrite and Move.
