Need a good hex editor for Linux?

Question

I need a good HEX editor for Linux, and by good I mean: * Fast * Search/replace features * Can display data not only in hex, but also binary, octal, etc. * Can work with huge (> 1 gb) files without becoming slow and unresponsive (this requirement is important) * Optionally, has some compare/diff features What can you suggest?

Answer 1

Use Blex Hex Editor! You won't regret it. Great for exactly what you need. Oketa is good but has a steep learning curve.
