Hey,

I've looked but couldn't find this suggested on the forum:

Oftentimes I copy a selection of a few hex bytes that define a certain data length. In the next step I paste those bytes into the Length-Field of the "Select Block"-dialog. Now when I do this, HxD immediately complains about the "invalid digit" ( the space(s) HxD uses to concatenate the bytes ). For each space character, a warning is displayed and needs to be clicked away.

What I'd like to see is an option allowing me to define what character (if any) is used on copying a byte selection into the clipboard. To keep the current default functionality, it'd be a space character (00 0A). In my case, I'd leave it blank in order to get the numbers straight (000A).

Keep up the good work!

Do you need to specify the separating character between hex-digit pairs, or is it just for pasting into text fields that expect hex digits?

In the latter case I could just modify those text fields to ignore white space.

This particular request was targeted at pasting hex bytes into HxD fields expecting hex bytes.

So yeah, what you suggest would definitely fix my issue.

I changed the topic title accordingly, so I'll know better what was intended when I get back to it.

If you want to get notified when this is fixed/implemented, easiest is to stay subscribed to this topic, I'll reply to it when it is fixed.

Done.
