Hex Workshop Feature List

Basic Editing:

• Cut, Copy, Paste, Insert, Fill, and Delete Hex.
• Multilevel Undo and Redo
• ASCII, DOS, EBCDIC, Macintosh, Window, Unicode or custom character set filters.
• Highlight hex/text sequences using Color Maps

• Select by offset/length, Select All
• Paste Special (any format on the clipboard)
• Insert File a file or replace selection with the contexts of a File
• Drag and drop files onto Hex Workshop for quick ediiting
• Select "Hex Edit" from windows Right-Click context menus to view/edit files

Highly Customizable GUI:

• Hex values can be grouped by byte, word, long, quad, or 16 bytes
• Specify the bytes per line (1-64) or let Hex Workshop fit to window
• User-definable font and character mapping
• User-definable colors for the offset, odd columns, even column, hex area background, text area background, modified bytes, separator lines, find all instances, highlighted structures, highlighted bookmarks, and compare results.
• Specify significant digits for floating porint/double rendering
• User-definable short-cut keys
• Enable/Disable warnings and notification message
• Workbook mode allows you to switch between open documents quickly

Find:

• Search using floating point values (Big Endian, Little Endian, or either)
• Search using double percision floating point values (Big Endian, Little Endian, or either)
• Find All Instances or instance by instance
• Search from top down or bottom up

Replace:

• Find/Replace by Hex Strings, Text, Strings, or values
• Hex Workshop can pad text strings will nulls if the replacement string is shorter than the original string.

      +, -, *, /, %
• Functions supported for address, length, and count (array) definitions:
      UByteAt(), UShortAt(), ULongAt()

      last (bookmark), start (first bookmark), arrayindex, filelength

Structure Viewer:

• View/Edit data in its natural structure/form
