十六进制编辑器--ImHex

十六进制编辑器是用于编辑单个字节数据的软件应用程序，主要由程序员或系统管理员使用。

常规文本编辑器和十六进制编辑器之间的区别在于常规编辑器表示文件的逻辑内容，而十六进制编辑器表示文件的物理内容。十六进制编辑器可以让你以十六进制的形式查看或编辑文件的二进制数据，并用较为友好的界面来编辑二进制数据。对于需要处理二进制数据的用户，它非常受欢迎，例如使用十六进制编辑器可以更改游戏中的部分设置。

常用的十六进制编辑器有 Bless Hex Editor、GNOME Hex Editor、Okteta 等。和大多数编辑器一样，人们对于十六进制编辑器的要求包括功能强大、可定制性、界面美观。GitHub 上有一款开源的，名叫 ImHex 的十六进制编辑器，star 数量高达21.9k，Github地址：https://github.com/WerWolv/ImHex。

项目作者在 readme 文件中首先介绍了 ImHex 编辑器实现的功能特性。
