TrueSight Linux 1.2b
rueSight is a fast hex editor, designed from the ground up to be used on a Linux system, but ported to Windows as well.
It is designed to be used as an editor for disk images, which are often multiple terabyte in size.
The size limit for files opened in TrueSight is 18 exabytes (18 million terabytes). Since achieving this limit is not practical in many years to come, you can interpret it as no limit.
Features
The list of features for current version:
- Support for DOS charset CP437 for old-school data inspection,
- Copy and paste multiple-gigabyte regions in fractions of a second for TrueSight it doesnt matter if you want to copy few bytes or few terabytes,
- Flexible user interface: you can view one file at a time, or multiple files at once with split-screen feature. See the screenshots page 1 or page 2 page for more information,
