Today I am introducing a program called HxD. It lets you view a file’s hexadecimal bytes. Although HxD is free, it is no less capable than professional-grade editors. HxD not only supports basic hex viewing but can also directly control memory. HxD also has an export feature: you can export modified files directly as source files for languages such as VB or C++. Personally, I think anyone who often works with computers should keep it on a USB drive, just in case.
