hexapoda is a modal hex editor for inspecting and editing binary files with a selection-first TUI.
It displays data in a hexadecimal format and the editor color-codes bytes by value, supports multiple selections which can have its selection as signed, unsigned, binary, fixed-point, UTF-8, or color values. It can also display split selections into a 4-byte fixed-size chunks for reading the character hex bytes easily instead of all together.
Other features of hexapoda include configurable vim style key-bindings, undo and redo functionality, marked offsets and while hex editing a binary, you can jump to relative or absolute offsets quickly.
This tool is useful for programmers, reverse engineers, and helix or kakoune users analyzing binary files in the terminal.
