I've been using hexedit quite a lot, mainly for _corrupting_ files, and
have been meaning to send this collection of changes for far too long
now. I saw a bug requesting editing in the ASCII pane (which this patch
_doesn't_ add), and wanted to get this sent in before it has to undergo
the third massive merge conflict of its existence...
The main "TODO" in this is that I never got round to implementing
searching for an arbitrary byte sequence. It seems like we ought to have
that feature, but personally I'm far more likely to jump to an offset or
to search for some ASCII. I haven't needed to search for arbitrary byte
sequences in all this time, so I'll fix this if/when I actually need
it...
* Enter (new) read-only mode rather than refusing to open read-only
files.
* More keys: page up/page down, home/end, and ctrl-home/ctrl-end for
beginning/end of file.
* Jump with ^J (or vi-like :). Enter absolute address or +12 or -40 for
relative jumps.
* Find with ^F (or vi-like /). No support for bytes, but useful for
finding text. (^G or n for next match, ^D or p for previous match.)
* Support all the usual suspects for "quit": vi-like q, desktop-like ^Q,
panic ^C, or even plain old Esc.
* The ASCII pane is made more readable by (hopefully) reasonable use of
color. Regular control characters are shown in red using the
appropriate letter (so a red A is 0x01, etc), printable characters are
shown normally, and top-bit set characters are just shown as a purple
question mark (since I couldn't come up with a better representation
that had any obvious value --- in my experience top-bit set characters
are either meaningless in ASCII, part of a UTF-8 sequence in modern
files, or in some random code page in ancient files). The choice of
red and purple was to deliberately make these not-actually-ASCII
characters slide into the background; before this patch they have so
many bright pixels (especially with the use of reverse video) that I
couldn't clearly see the *actual* ASCII content in the ASCII pane.
* Addresses are now shown in yellow. No real justification other than "it
looks nice".
* NUL bytes in the hex pane are shown dimmed. I find this helpful
especially when there's a lot of padding, and it can actually be a
useful clue when reverse engineering (you can "see" repeated patterns
more easily), but I can understand if this one's controversial.
* Errors are shown "vim style" in bold white text on a red background,
waiting briefly to ensure they're seen.
* The status bar shows the filename, whether the file is opened
read-only, the current offset into the file, and the total
length of the file.
* SIGWINCH handling has been added.

Thanks for James McMechan for pointing this out.
Using esc[1L and esc[1M escapes with cursor jump to
1, 1 to make scrolling effect instead of S and T

Everyone forgets that mmap returns MAP_FAILED rather than NULL on failure.
Every use of mmap in toybox was either doing the wrong check, or no check
at all (including the two I personally added).

Also, I forgot to check in uuid_show() last time.

add function key definitions and shift/ctrl/alt cursor keys.

checking, and fix up format checking complaints.
Added out(type, value) function to stat to avoid a zillion printf typecasts.

and add test_scankey.

(Easier to genericize logic and reuse later in less or vi...)

And yes, I tested $PWD/私はガラスを食べられま す。それは私を傷つけません。
as a name and made it work. If you throw newlines or ascii escapes in the
name it'll use the fancy printing logic for chars, otherwise it does the
full utf8 fontmetrics deal.
