tweak (ncurses-based hex editor)
Tweak is a hex editor. It allows you to edit a file at very low level,
-letting you see the full and exact binary contents of the file. It can be
-useful for modifying binary files such as executables, editing disk or CD
-images, debugging programs that generate binary file formats incorrectly,
-and many other things.

-Tweak uses a complex data structure based on B-trees, designed to make
-almost all editing operations extremely fast, even when they are working
-on huge amounts of data.

Tweak supports insert mode (not particularly useful if you're editing
an executable file or a filesystem image, but can be extremely handy in
other file formats such as PNG).
-Cutting, copying and pasting within the file you are editing is extremely
-efficient. No matter how big the chunk of data you are moving around -
-even if it's a 200Mb section of a CD image - Tweak will always perform
-the operation effectively instantly.

Tweak supports lazy loading of the input file: rather than sucking it
all into memory straight away, it simply remembers which parts of the
-editing buffer are copies of which parts of the input file and refers to
-the file on disk when it needs to.
