Advanced features
- Partially open files
- load, edit and write back only a part of a very large file
- e.g. load a 1 MB chunk at the very end of a 650 MB ISO file, change a value and write it back to correct position in the original file
- Search for any combination of text and binary data using escape sequences
- e.g. <bh:00>txt<wd:1000> searches for a byte with hexadecimal value 0 followed by the text string "txt" followed by a word with decimal value 1000
- Apply binary templates for structured information
- describe data in a C-struct-like syntax, then read out the correct data values from the raw binary
- e.g. the template "CHAR c; INT x;" reads and prints a character followed by a 32-bit integer from the current cursor position
- Hard disk sector access
- currently read-only!
- Apply cryptographic algorithms to data
