Dev Build 2147 is out now. Some of the changes are:
-
Hexadecimal encoding. Files may be opened as hex, which allows editing binary files in a meaning manner. While this does enable editing binary files, it’s not a hex editing mode per-se, and I’m not planning on adding any further functionality here. It exists so binary files, when opened as a preview by Goto Anything, are displayed in a reasonable manner. It also reduces font glyph rasterisation load, which binary files used to cause, so you’ll no longer get a hitch when previewing binary files.
-
OSX: When editing files you don’t have permission to edit, you’ll be prompted for elevated privileges to save the file. This enables editing of /etc/hosts, for example.
