ediHex 0.2a

A major update focused on search, file comparison, and hex editing.

What's New

Search runs in the background with a progress indicator — the UI stays responsive on large files.
Closing the Find panel no longer discards results — browse matches from Inspector → Find Results.
Navigate matches with Previous / Next from the Inspector or the Edit menu.

Compare with… — start a diff with the active file on the left (Tools menu or tab context menu).
Jump between differences with F3 and ⇧F3.
Inspector → Comparison shows scan progress, diff count, current offset, and navigation controls.
Clearer diff highlighting and an improved minimap.

Fixed data corruption when editing many bytes in sequence on an open file.
Retyping the same value (e.g. 11 on a byte that is already 0x11) now moves to the next byte without marking the file as changed.
Compare view no longer shows wrong highlights after changing bytes per row.
Diff navigation works correctly across multi-byte changes, files of different sizes, and at file boundaries.
Fixed a crash when comparing files of unequal length.
Scroll position is preserved more reliably while browsing and comparing.

Built-in help (⌘?) updated for Compare with…, diff navigation, and Find Results.

Requires macOS 15.6 or later.
