tweak is a hex editor. It allows you to edit a file at very low
|
||
|
|
level, letting you see the full and exact binary contents of the
|
||
|
|
file. It can be useful for modifying binary files such as executables,
|
||
|
|
editing disk or CD images, debugging programs that generate binary
|
||
|
|
file formats incorrectly, and many other things.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Unlike simpler hex editors, tweak possesses a fully functional
|
||
|
|
insert mode. This is not useful when editing many of the types of
|
||
|
|
file described above, but can be useful in other situations. Also,
|
||
|
|
an insert mode makes it easy to use tweak to construct new files
|
||
|
|
from scratch.
