Hex editors present data in hexadecimal format. For your MAC operating system you can try wxHexEditor which is writen with C++/wxWidgets GUI libs. It is is another Hex Editor, build because there is no good hex editor for Linux system, specially for big files.
- It uses 64 bit file descriptors (supports files up to 2^64 bytes).
- It does NOT copy whole file to your RAM. That make it FAST and can open files (which sizes are Multi Giga-Tera-Peta-Exabytes)for expense of some Megabytes of RAM.
- Written with C++/wxWidgets GUI libs and can be used with other OSes such as Mac OS, Windows...
