-Data Inspector to show permanently decoding of numbers
-Built-in XVI32script interpreter allows to automate editing or share patches. More...
-Computing of CRC16 (standard) and CRC32 (PKZIP compatible) checksums for complete file and selected block (only if block is currently selected)
-Easily works with huge files. Try to open a 60 MB sized text file with some other hex editors (not to speak about Wordpad), then use XVI32...

-XVI32 allows to edit files up to 2 GB (enough virtual memory provided, of course)
-For your convenience, XVI32 stores settings and last used search strings etc. in XVI32.INI file
-Progress indication in percent for most operations
-You can abort nearly all operations (reading/writing files, search, replace, print...)
-Display of both text (ASCII/ANSI) and hexadecimal representation
-Two synchronous cursors in text and hex area

-Wheel mouse support
-Fully resizeable window (change number of rows and columns)
-Font and font size adjustable
-Overwrite or insert characters
-Insert text or hex string n times

-Search text or hex string, e.g. find "this text" or find "0D 0A"

-Open file in Read Only mode (e.g. if opened by another application or to avoid unintentional modifications)
-Insert file contents into file
