Usage
-----

    edhex <filename>
    echo '0,$p' |edhex -P <filename> |less -R

Differences from ed
-------------------
- Not every `ed` command is implemented
- The prompt `*` is printed by default.
- Uses byte numbers instead of line numbers.
- There's a width setting `W` for printing out.
- Byte numbers start from 0.
- a, b, c, d, e, f can't be commands because they could be numbers.

Preferences
-----------
If you choose to save (P)references to [$XDG_CONFIG_HOME or $HOME/.config/edhex/preferences], they will be automatically be loaded on startup.
