Note** - replacing bytes will results in adding or removing of bytes IF number of bytes you are replacing is different from the number of bytes you are searching. i.e. if you search "00FF" & replace with "AA01FF", this will automatically insert the additional byte to the file. If you search "editor" & replace with "edit", this will automatically delete the unwanted 2 bytes. 4. Move easily between bytes while editing via the "Prev" & "Next" buttons on the keyboard. 5. Insert & delete any number of bytes at any given locations are supported. 6. "Jump to.." any location of the file easily by specifying the byte number to go to. 7.
