Could you remind me where I might download an updated English version of HxD which has this error fixed?

Sorry, is there a newer version of HxD executable where this error has been fixed?
(To me, it would make sense to release a bug-fixing version, e.g. "2.5.1", that would contain all the bug ...

Could you remind me where I might download an updated English version of HxD which has this error fixed?

HxD ver. 2.5.0.0, reproducable with both 32-bit and 64-bit version.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open any file in HxD
2. From the main menu, select Analysis -> Statistics
3. In the Statastics view, press Esc on the keyboard
The result:

Does the latest version of HxD include some additional command line switches, if any?
I remember there were several forum's threads about the command line switches/options, but the readme.txt does not seem to mention any.

There is even more powerful solution :) I think I've already mentioned the XVI32 hex-editor with its amazing XVI-script ability (and we all expect for similar ability in HxD ;)). This is very helpful when you need extra abilities to find, replace, insert, remove and so on. As the documnetation says ...

There's a tiny command-line tool which can do this: bincmp 2.2 (http://sourceforge.net/projects/bincmp/files/bincmp2/)
For your example, create a text file named "patch.txt" with the following lines:
0004AE: 00 00
0004AF: 00 00
0004B0: 80 40
0004B1: 3F 3F

and execute "bincmp -patch patch.txt etc ...

Hi, just tried the developing version - looks very promising! A comment regarding the Data Inspector: I think it will be worth to add an option "Show HEX values" for Byte/Word/DWord/etc.

Happy New Year! Best wishes!

Will we see a new version of my favourite Hex-Editor soon?

The big-file support means undo after save cannot be implemented without copying the entire file, which would be slow.
Just my thoughts. With planned internal script support, both modification and undo operations could be done by the same script engine:
1. modification -> (script) log <addr1 ...

Does HxD have such command-line switch which would allow to compare two files? I.e. can I compare two files using something similar to the following? -

HxD.exe /cmp "file 1" "file 2"

If not, can it be a feature request?

That would be achieved by writing a value inside the HxD.exe itself
Personally I don't see how it differs from writing to ini-file ;)
IMHO, writing to ini-file is better than modification of the exe-file, because the first choice is a standard operation whereas the second looks similar to some ...

File history such as find/replace history are specific to a computer, don't you think so? I mean, if you are searching for "AA BB CC" in file "c:\temp\data_file.hex" on your current computer, your another computer probably even does not contain this file, so what is the sence to store this history ...

Version: HxD 1.7.6.0 portable (from zip-archive).

When "HxD.ini" is viewed or edited in another program, HxD crashes when I want to close it.

P.S.
Anyway, great program.

Hello.
At first, thank you for this excellent program! It's great that HxD does not load the whole editing file in a memory because it allows to edit very large files.
However, I think that the perfect hex editor is a combination of HxD and XVI32. The most powerfull and handy feature of XVI32 is its ...
