User reviews

The hex highlighting is fine but the text highlighting is misaligned, other than that it works well

I use. It to view old octal computer files. It works well for that wish that when you view data as octal it would list addresses in octal as well

So I used it for modding btl files which use hex. However finding a specific hex fragment, it returns a few results, but keeps cycling to only some of them, I found the fragment I was looking for by using another program and I did find it here using offset, yet still not appearing on search results. Another bjg disadvantage is that you have to go each time to the directory to open the file, I'm sorry but it's not worth it
