If you can do all-in-one - do it
. Another good thing, which is half the reason why I wrote my own little hex viewing program ages ago, would be the ability to display 2 ( or more? ) files at the same time. For example, my program has a split down the middle so it can show 2 files (or the same file twice) on the left and right. If you were to do this, I would definately rate this highly

I think multiple windows would also work for me. Especially if I can run other programs at the same time on screen. It's a matter of taste, I guess. I don't mind switching between windows. But all in one is okay as well. I started on MexCom 4 from scratch once, and it had multiple windows, and you could drag stuff from one window to the other. Never finished it though.Rahly wrote:which do you think is better, multiple windows? or all in one, like VS or VS.NET?
I am really very noob here , so forgive my perhaps naive question. Is there any utility which could split file into "intuitively" recognisable chunks. I usually use graphic interpretation of the hex content in Axe Hex Editor. So I can see from the graphic patterns whenever there is a bitmap or other graphic in it. I can see now and can recognise a sound file. My only prob with Axe that row width cannot be adjusted with an arrow key in one fluid movement , but that is minor.
Is there anything like this to do it better? Are there any other tricks of the trade available in this particualry area ? Or tool to split into sensible and integral file chunks? Thank you.
