HEXwriter

HEXwriter is a tiny and simple-to-use application that allows you to find out the hexadecimal value of an ASCII code. It can be handled by users of any skill level, even by the ones who have no experience in software programs.

The tool's interface is represented by a small, standard window with an uncomplicated layout. All you have to do is start writing the hexadecimal code; the conversion to ASCII is automatically done as you type in the numbers.

The result can be seamlessly copied to the Clipboard with the simple click of a button. It is also possible to reverse the roles and convert ASCII to HEX, by enabling this option from the Mode menu. You can minimize the window to the Start bar from the Project menu.

The straightforward software utility packs minimal features, clearly. But it is low-demanding on your computer's resources, as HEXwriter runs on a very low quantity of CPU and system memory.

It has a good response time, is backed by a Readme file and instantly displays results, without causing the operating system to freeze, crash or pop up error dialogs; everything worked smoothly during our tests.

We must take into account the fact that HEXwriter has not been updated for a long time. Other than that, it delivers quick solutions when it comes to HEX-to-ASCII conversions and vice-versa.
