## Historique du projet et usages

heksa is a Go-based command-line hex dumper focused on colored terminal output and multiple simultaneous numeric views of binary data. Its history is thin but source-backed enough to identify it as a small developer utility rather than a larger platform.

### Historique du projet

The repository metadata records heksa's public GitHub project from December 2019. The README credits Pekka Jarvinen from 2019 onward and describes the tool as a hex file dumper with ANSI colors, configurable output formats, offsets, seek and limit handling, and stdin support.

### Historique d'adoption

heksa's adoption appears narrow: the input package facts list Homebrew packaging, and the upstream README includes packaging-status and release-download badges. That is enough to mark it as a packaged terminal utility, but not enough to claim broad ecosystem adoption.

### Modes d'utilisation

The CLI reads files or stdin and can display hex, decimal, octal, bits, ASCII, block visualizations, multiple offset formats, human-readable offsets, relative offsets after seeking, byte limits, and prefixed numeric inputs such as hexadecimal, octal, binary, SI, and IEC units.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

For package nerds, heksa is interesting as a modern replacement-adjacent tool for `hexdump` and `xxd`: single binary, cross-platform Go build, colorized byte classes, and convenience flags aimed at binary inspection and reverse-engineering workflows.

### Chronologie

- 2019: GitHub repository metadata records the heksa project.
- 2021: The README's embedded help text shows a 1.14.0 build date in May 2021.
- Package-manager era: The input package facts record Homebrew packaging.

### Related projects

- heksa is related to traditional binary inspection tools such as `hexdump`, `xxd`, and `od`, while adding terminal color and convenience formatting for modern CLI workflows.
