Search for NOT <hex string>

A binary file often has fill bytes, such as xFF, that go on indefinitely. It is desirable to be able to skip over them to the next significant part of the file. Being able to search for NOT <hex string> would be very useful, and would seem to be just as fast as searching for the same length string.

Thank you for your great program.
