HEXEDIT edits file on block level, ie, changes are made into current block. User may either save changed block or ignore the changes. It is more like patches on existing file. Editor doesn't make new version of the file. The current block is displayed on the screen in two formats: Hexadecimal, ASCII. The user may edit in both styles. Editor includes commands to move through the block or the file and to change the contents of the block. On-line HELP is included for all editor commands.
