#Hex File Dumper
4 messages in this thread
I need a program to dump a file in hex so I can see what's REALLY in the
file. I was unable to locate something using the AMiga file finder here,
maybe my choice of keywords was not the best.
Anybody know of a program here that would do this?
Thanks, -J
Jay,
You have such a program already, as it's part of the standard Amiga…
command set. Just use the CLI command "type" with the hex option, as
follows:
1> type file-name opt h
This will give you a hex dump of the file.
Hope this helps….

Jay,
from a cli :
type <program name> opt h
or …more to the point (presuming you want to go back and forth in
the file) :
type >hex.dump <program name> opt h
and then load hex.dump into your favorite editor to peruse it.

Jay, it can be as easy as telling the Amiga to do it from the CLI.
TYPE >PATH:FILENAME DFN:FILENAME OPT H
That will put it into a file and you can then load it into any text reader.
If you want to edit in HEX, look for some of the disk editors like DiskX. I
forget where they are right this minute, but you can locate them easily
with the FileFinder (go amg).
