Just what I need
brookgardenApril 17, 2010
Pros
Love the new 140 character ruler at the top - how did you know I use it for twitter? AptEdit Lite has way more functionality than I need - but everything I want and it gets better with each update!
Cons
I cannot think of a thing.
Summary
Excellent program for my use.
good software. easy to use.

Cons
a little slow sometimes
Summary
So lite it's useless to me
Jim HarmonNovember 23, 2008
Pros
It's free.
Cons
All I wanted to do was open a binary file, search for a specific hex value and replace it with another specific hex value. Although there is a "replace" option in the dropdown menu, it's greyed out. I have yet to figure out how to activate it.
Summary
While this does appear to be a free program, the only conclusion I can come to is that the functionality of it has been crippled.
Better than Notepad
