./misc/hexd, Colourful, human-friendly hexdump tool for reverse engineering

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.1.0, Package name: hexd-1.1.0, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

hexd prints a human-readable hexdump of the specified files, or standard
input if omitted. Its main distinguishing feature is the use of colours to
visually indicate which range of values an octet belongs to, aiding in
spotting patterns in binary data.

By default, hexd relies on 256-color SGR escape sequences. Most terminal
emulators should support these today, but technically they're only defacto
standard. However, you can override the formatting used with the HEXD_COLORS
environment variable (see manpage), or use the -p option for plaintext
output.

hexd: Avoid compressing the man page before installation

It tries to run gzip -k which apparently CentOS 7 doesn't have (?)
