README
Hex
A project to create alternate (and more user friendly) versions of existing hex tools.
The project can be installed as a extension to the github-cli.
Installation
To install as a standalone binary, run the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/sohomdatta1/hex.git
cd hex
./script/normal-build.sh
For use with github-cli, run the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/sohomdatta1/hex.git
cd hex
./script/build.sh
gh extension install .
Operations
Currently, the following operations are supported:
str- Dumps out readable strings in a particular filedump- Dumps out a particular file in hexdump format
If a pager is not desired, the NOPAGER env variable can be set. If colored output is not desired, the NOCOLOR env variable can be set.
Language
The project is written in Rust, mainly as a way for me to learn the language. I feel like implementing common tools such as these will be a nice way to get familiar with the basics.
