It's not as easy as it looks.

Get the source code for XXED, an ASCII/hexadecimal editor for binary files
written by Jim Charlton <charltn@ccm.umanitoba.ca> and distributed
recently in the comp.sources.atari.st newsgroup.

Kudos to Jim ... it's the first really substantial chunk of GEM C source
code I've seen.
