Hex Workshop is a set of hexadecimal development tools for Microsoft Windows, combining advanced binary editing with the ease and flexibility of a word processor. With Hex Workshop you can edit, cut, copy, paste, insert, and delete hex, print customizable hex dumps, and export to RTF or HTML for publishing. Additionally you can goto, find, replace, compare, calculate checksums and character distributions within a sector or file.

Hex Workshop supports drag and drop and is integrated with the Windows Explorer so you can quickly and easily hex edit from your most frequently used workspaces. Hex Workshop includes a Base Converted for converting between hex, decimal, and binary and a Hex Calculator supporting arithmetic and logical operations. Hex Workshop also contains a Data Inspector and Structure Viewer so you can view and edit interpreted decimal values and embedded arithmetic and logical operations allowing direct manipulation of your data.

Hex Workshop is available at retail price of $49.95 (with volume discounts and site licenses also available). For more information, visit the Hex Workshop web site at http://www.hexworkshop.com or send e-mail inquiries to sales@bpsoft.com.

Basic Editing:

• Cut, Copy, Paste, Insert, Fill, and Delete Hex.

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.
