Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
Quick comparison of three hex editors:
HexEdit v2.0
- Most powerful, but betrays pre-Mac OS X roots.
- Features file compare, resource fork editing, PPC code disassembly.
- Interface: needs upgrading; does not have value display or recent files; but options are easily accessible from menu or shortcuts.
- Major con: Truncates long file names.
- No online help.
- Compare function is AppleScript-able.
HexEditor v1.4
- Best display, well organised, easy to read.
- Shortcomings: Arrow keys don't work properly; "open" doesn't go into app bundles, no decimal addresses, no case-insensitive ASCII search, no "go to address", no offset display.
- "Open special" works for paths, but not for special files (contrary to its description).
- Has synch display for multiple files (but no real file compare).
- Basic online help.
0xED v1.0.2
- Interface clearly Cocoa, but needs more work. The only one with a fully resizable window. Everything listed under "shortcomings" for HexEditor works properly here.
- Flaws: No shift-click selection; switch to decimal address through preferences; "go to" under "find".
- No online help.
- Conclusion: Useful, but not as powerful as HexEdit. Interface needs some polish.

The best OS X hex editor so far. Fast stable and professional.

This editor works nominally for viewing and editing, but there is one place where it definitely needs work: it doesn't support shift-click selection of a region of data, i.e. setting your cursor at one end of the region and then shift-clicking at the other end to select the region. You have to drag-select, which is a pain if you're selecting a large region in the middle of a file.

For me this is the best Mac OS X hex editor. Really clean and space-saving interface and the value converter is perfect. Thanks!
