## プロジェクトの歴史と使われ方

hexer is a terminal hex editor for Unix-like systems, positioned as a multi-buffer binary-file editor whose interface is intentionally close to vi/ex.

### プロジェクトの歴史

The project history reflected by the maintained homepage and changelog shows hexer as a traditional Unix terminal utility rather than a framework: it is distributed as source, documents POSIX-compatible environments as its portability target, and keeps its public interface centered on editing buffers displayed as hex dumps.

The hosted project moved into a GitLab-centered maintenance model, with a project page, ReadTheDocs/MkDocs documentation, tarball downloads from the maintainer site, and release notes covering the 1.0.x maintenance series.

### 採用の歴史

Package-manager metadata in the batch lists hexer in Homebrew, Debian, Fedora, Arch, and Ubuntu, which fits its niche: a small terminal binary editor that Unix package sets can carry without a larger GUI stack.

### 使われ方

hexer is used when the user wants direct binary editing in a terminal, especially by people already comfortable with vi-like movement and command conventions. Its package identity is tied to hex editing, multiple buffers, undo, and a curses-style terminal workflow rather than to scripting or file conversion.

### パッケージ好きにとっての重要性

For package-maintainer culture, hexer is the sort of old-school utility that fills a precise gap beside tools such as xxd, od, bvi, and graphical hex editors: it is interactive, terminal-native, and small enough to be present in multiple Unix distributions.

### タイムライン

- 2015: Public GitLab project metadata records the hexer repository under the hexer namespace.
- 2016: 1.0.2 and 1.0.3 appear in the maintained changelog.
- 2018: 1.0.4 and 1.0.5 appear in the maintained changelog.
- 2020: 1.0.6 appears in the maintained changelog.
- 2025: 1.0.7 appears in the maintained changelog.

### Related projects

- Related command-line binary inspection tools include xxd and od for dumps/conversion, bvi for vi-like binary editing, and newer color-oriented viewers such as hexyl.

### ソース

- Homebrew formula metadata and the input package-manager map support the package-manager adoption notes.
- Maintainer changelog provides the 1.0.x release timeline.
- Maintainer homepage describes hexer as a multi-buffer binary editor for Unix-like systems with a vi/ex-like interface.
