BinEd

BinEd is a feature-packed, yet intuitive application that can help you not only view hexadecimal and binary code, but also modify it.

In order to be able to use the functions of BinEd, you first need to make sure you have Java installed on your computer. Moreover, since it is Java-based, this app can also be enjoyed on Linux without any restrictions.

You can start working on as many files as you need, at the same time, since this utility supports tabs, meaning each of your documents gets its separate workspace so you can analyze and modify its contents without distractions.

A nifty feature included within this app is color coding, as it helps you identify the size of your bytes in a single glance.

When you need to quickly locate a word or a phrase, BinEd provides with a built-in search function that you can configure as you see fit. More specifically, you can search for text sharing the same letter-case as your keyword or you can enable the display of multiple matches, as well as instruct the app to start the search from the mouse cursor's position.

Alternatively, you can switch to binary search if you are interested in finding a string of code. No matter if you selected text or binary, BinEd offers you the possibility to batch replace your file's data with a new string that you enter.

You can also compare two files side-by-side and identify the parts that are different without any effort on your side.

BinEd comes in handy when you often work with hexadecimal or binary data, and you want to be able to view, edit and search data within the same app, so as to save time and energy.
