Tulsa, Oklahoma
Keywords: Hex editor

I'm looking for a simple hex-based file editor, similar to the file
modification abilities found in the Norton Utilities NU.COM program.  I don't
need really general abilities, just to be able to patch the occasional
byte in LARGE (up to 10MB) files, and to search for occurrences of given
strings on bytes.

I have but can no longer use the Norton stuff, because I've recently gone to
a Novell file server setup, and I've been forced to give up a lot of my DOS 
goodies that deal directly with the disk structures.  

This editor would therefore have to be well-behaved in its I/O in order to
run on the Novell filesystem.

Thanks...
