nchexedit (ncurses-based hex editor) NCurses Hexedit is a full screen text mode Hex editor using the curses library. nchexedit lets you edit any file as its byte-for-byte representation. It can even let you view and edit your fixed disks on your Linux system. The original name for nchexedit is "hexedit", but there's already a hexedit on SBo (a completely different program, though it's also a hex editor). nchexedit can be installed without conflicting with hexedit. On Debian and related systems, the package for this is called "ncurses-hexedit", and the binary itself is called "hexeditor".
