I am looking for a command line driven hex editor. I read the other topic, 'a reasonable hex- editor', good things to know. Though a lot are toward linux.
The only command line hexeditor seems to be this here program, Hexed. It is nice that someone Finally made one, as most are gui based, with only commands to open at a certain offset (no editing). B.zaar , .
Thanks, I'm glad it' seems useful. I've been using it in makefiles or scripts mostly.

I have tried compiling the sources. I am on xp, so I tried gnu Cmake, and make.exe, adding required dlls, but still I'm not able to compile Is there a binary somewhere,
orr could that be posted to a very unknowledged newbie?
I haven't done much to make it compile in a cross platform way yet, I've been focusing on just getting the main functions working. I've compiled it with both MinGW/MSYS using gcc 4.5.0 and cygwin using gcc 4.3.4. I recommend using MinGW/MSYS so that it compiles to a standard windows executable.
The 'make install' command will not work by default in windows so set 'INSTALL_DIR=/c/apps/hexed' in your environment then make the directory c:\apps\hexed (I found a bug testing this that the makefile wont make the install directory automatically) or you can just copy the executable from PROJECT_BIN to your own directory.
Don't forget to include the path in your PATH environment.
