HT Editor 2.0 Review
HT Editor is a file editor/analyzer/viewer for executables. The goal is to combine the low-level functionality of a debugger and the usability of IDEs.
We aim towards a perfect hex-editing ability and support of the most important file formats. PE, LE, NE, MZ, COFF, LZ and ELF executables are supported.
Here are some key features of "HT Editor":
Supported file formats
· common object file format (COFF/XCOFF32) (header, image with code/data analyser)
· executable and linkable format (ELF) (header, section headers, program headers, symbol tables, image with code/data analyser (x86, IA-64, Alpha, PowerPC) and relocations)
· linear executables (LE) (header, VxD descriptor, object table, page table, image with code/data analyser (x86), auto-relocation layer)
· standard dos executables (MZ) (header, relocations, image (disassembly only) )
· new executables (NE) (header, segments, names, entrypoints, image with code/data analyser (x86), auto-relocation layer (pretty complete) )
· portable executables (PE32, PE64) (header, import section, delay-import section, export section, resources, image with code/data analyser (x86, IA-64, Alpha), preliminary support for .net executables)
· java class files (CLASS) (header, image with code/data analyser (java bytecode disassembler))
· Mach exe/link format (MachO) (header, image with code/data analyser (x86, PowerPC) )
· X-Box executable (XBE) (header, imports, image with code/data analyser (x86) )
· Flat (FLT) (header, image with data analyser (no disassembler yet))
· PowerPC executable format (PEF)
Code & Data Analyser
· finds branch sources and destinations recursively
· finds procedure entries
· creates labels based on this information
· creates xref information
· allows to interactively analyse unexplored code (press 'c')
· allows to create/rename/delete labels (press 'n')
· allows to create/edit comments (press '#')
