sharkdp/hexyl v0.9.0

on GitHub

Changes

• Breaking change (binary): setting the -o/--display-offset flag no longer overrides the value set by --skip #115. The first displayed address is now the sum of the two values - this matches the behaviour of xxd.

Features

• Allow relative and negative byte offsets (e.g. hexyl --skip=-1block), see #99 (@ErichDonGubler)
• Added -l as another alias for '-n/--length' (xxd compatibility), see #121 and #135 (@TheDoctor314)

Bugfixes

• Argument --length silently takes precedence over --bytes, see #105
• Print warning on empty content, see #107 and #108
• Disallow block sizes of zero, see #110
• Fix newline appearing in --version output, see #131 and #133 (@scimas)

Other

• Better diagnostic messages, see #98 (@ErichDonGubler)

Packaging

• hexyl is now available on snapstore, see #116 (@purveshpatel511)
