Description

Edits binary files from a terminal with commands modeled after vi. It is useful for inspecting or changing raw file contents when a normal text editor would corrupt or hide non-text bytes.

Binary editing can permanently damage executables, images, databases, or firmware files. Work on copies and verify offsets carefully before saving changes.
