For those wondering what hex editing is useful for, here's one case: Many older video games did not checksum or encrypt their savefiles, so you could (hex-)edit them to change your current progress (campaign stage) and attributes (gold, credits, skills).
Very interested in the parsing parts for file-format validation. I used to use 010 editor and had written several parsers for various files but I no longer have a license for that but wish I had a way to interpret files to check against a standard like this offers. Thanks for sharing!
FYI seems on Windows this has special installation instructions with a Python dependency. Too bad it's not just an executable binary I can drop in and run.
Is it possible to search for a specific pattern in this (or any other) hex editor?<p>E.g., if you have some sort of container format or aggregated file where you want to search for a specific instance of a pattern (starting from any offset). I haven't found support for this in ImHex (but I might have missed it).
How does it compare to HxD? <a href="https://mh-nexus.de/en/hxd/" rel="nofollow">https://mh-nexus.de/en/hxd/</a>
