using ncurses, with a friendly pico-style interface.
Features
Displays each byte as ascii, hex, decimal, octal and binary.
Allows changes to be input in all of the above (and now with bit toggling
in the binary column)

Download
Tarball:
shed can be downloaded at sourceforge. The latest version is 1.14.
Gentoo:
Users of gentoo linux can
emerge it as follows,
# emerge shed
However this may not always have been updated to the latest version.
Debian:
Get the source :-( - I've been told it needs large file support to be
considered for apt-get. There is experimental large file support in 1.14,
so please test this and let me know how it works!
