I am going to be implementing a hex editor in my application (shouldn't be editing anything larger than a few magabytes, but speed is desirable because it needs to be able to open/close the objects in sink with the selection in a table view), and I would like to know how I should go about doing so.

Use an NSTextView, filled with an NSMutableString? printf() and - stringWithFormat already has nice formatters for hex values. You'd have to add a delegate for -textDidChange (or similar) to do your custom editing. No need to subclass the NSTextView.

is there a good open source hex editing view

I'm not aware of one, for hex/binary editing I still use the ancient bvi ("binary-vi").


HTH,
Markus
