dhex is an ncurses-based hex-editor with a diff mode. It makes heavy use of colors, but is also themeable to work on monochrome monitors.
Installation:
1. Become root
2. Copy DHEX somewhere where everybody can find it
Configuration:
When you run DHEX for the first time, it will try to create a .dhexrc in your home-directory. Open it with any Texteditor you like and you can change the colors of its appearance.
This is useful if you try to run DHEX in a monochrome terminal.
Limitations:
No backwardsearching whatsoever
It crashes when you try to write searchfiles in a write-protected directory
It crashes when you try to read searchfiles that aren't existing
It crashes when you try to edit bigger files
It crashes when you try to change more than 524288 positions in the file
It crashes when the inputfile changes through another program, while dhex is still open.
Some graphical glitches
No searching in the Diff-Mode
No editing in the Diff-Mode
