Features

Hex Editor

Synalyze It! allows editing of files of any size without delay. Even copying of data of any size via clipboard is possible.

When you insert a string from the clipboard, the selected encoding is applied, of course. This enables you to convert text from one encoding to another easily.

Some features are only available in the Pro version.

Compare binary files byte-by-byte or with an intelligent comparison algorithm
