Ok. Thanks for spotting those bugs. 8 bit bit fields in a byte is not useful but should work.
Happy new year.
Regards Andrew.

I sent an email with two bugs of hexedit 4.0 over a year ago as the registration to hexedit.com forum was broken. I am not sure if the bugs are still present. I have not been working with hexedit since then and need some time to get into it again. Nevertheless here are bugs I found back then: using %b in the display field of a integer data immediately crashes hexedit. I was looking to a way to display binary data as bits and simply tried out if %b does that... %b is not documented and will probaby do nothing but it should not crash. 1-byte bitfields only work with up to seven bits but not with 8. — You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
