Ⅳ. 文档说明

Hexmode - Hex editing in Vim

Ever need a hex editor? Tired of installing ncurses-hexedit, hexedit, or
maybe even using an od script to format some binary file as hex just so you
can see if there are null characters at the end of the file? Fret no longer!

Thankfully, there is a wonderful wiki page that illustrated not only how
to use xxd to filter files to/from hex, but it also provided a great function,
called ToggleHex. On top of that, there are buffer reading and writing hooks so
using vim to edit a binary file will automatically edit it as hex.

Also, on that wiki page, it mentions how to avoid getting the "Press ENTER or
type command to continue" message that would normally show up. By adding
silent in a couple places, the ToggleHex function now operates quietly.
Fantastic!

So now I put out this repository so others can easily grab the plugin as just
a single file instead of copying and pasting the bits from the webpage and also
figuring out where to put this magical silent command.

Installation

First, install the Pathogen plugin if you don't already have it.
Adding other plugins by using Pathogen makes things much easier. Careful: the
second command is quite long.

1. mkdir -p ~/.vim/autoload ~/.vim/bundle
2. curl -so ~/.vim/autoload/pathogen.vim https://raw.github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen/master/autoload/pathogen.vim
3. echo 'call pathogen#infect()' >> ~/.vimrc

Now we can clone this repository into your ~/.vim/bundle directory.

1. cd ~/.vim/bundle
2. git clone https://github.com/fidian/hexmode.git

Usage

Simply editing a file in binary mode, e.g.,

vim -b some_file.jpg

will open it in hex mode.

Also, you can use :Hexmode to switch between hex editing and normal editing.

Use the g:hexmode_patterns flag to automatically open specific file patterns
in hex mode. E.g.,

let g:hexmode_patterns = '*.bin,*.exe,*.dat,*.o'

Use the g:hexmode_xxd_options flag to pass options to xxd. E.g.,

let g:hexmode_xxd_options = '-g 1'
