hex

Futuristic take on hexdump.

hex takes a file as input and outputs a hexadecimal view to stdout.

outputting source code arrays

hex has a feature which can output the input file bytes as source code arrays.

For example:

rust array

$ hex -ar -fx -c12 tests/files/tiny.txt
let ARRAY: [u8; 3] = [
    0x69, 0x6c, 0x0a
];

c array

$ hex -ac -fx -c12 tests/files/tiny.txt
unsigned char ARRAY[3] = {
    0x69, 0x6c, 0x0a
};

golang array

$ hex -ag -fx -c12 tests/files/tiny.txt
a := [3]byte{
    0x69, 0x6c, 0x0a,
}
