The DOAP metadata describes it as a GNOME application written in C, with source, issues, and releases hosted in GNOME infrastructure. ### Adoptionsgeschichte GHex occupies a small but durable role in the GNOME desktop ecosystem: it is not a core GNOME application, but the README identifies it as part of the GNOME Extra Apps family. Its release notes show ongoing translation updates, GTK and libadwaita porting work, and maintenance of the libgtkhex library API. ### Wie es verwendet wird Practitioners use GHex when they need a desktop-oriented view of raw data rather than a terminal hex dump. The application loads binary files, displays bytes and ASCII side by side, supports editing, and shares libgtkhex for applications that need the hex widget. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren For desktop packagers, GHex is a classic GNOME utility with both an application and a reusable library surface. Its NEWS file tracks GNOME-cycle versioning, translations, AppStream data, D-Bus integration, documentation generation, and GTK stack changes that downstream distributions care about. ### Zeitleiste - 2018: The GNOME GitLab project record was created. - 2024: GHex 46.0 included libgtkhex 4.8.0. - 2026: GHex 50.0 included libgtkhex 4.12.0. ### Related projects - GHex is related to GNOME Extra Apps, GTK, libadwaita, and the libgtkhex library produced from the same source tree. ### Quellen - - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise Für ghex wurde kein passendes lokales Secret-Handling-Manifest gefunden.
