Its documentation and README describe support for formats such as ELF, PE, Mach-O, MZ, NE, LE, Java class files, XBE, COFF/XCOFF, and others. The SourceForge-hosted site records a long 2.0.x release line from the 2000s into the early 2010s. In September 2014 the project announced that the official source repository moved to GitHub, and in January 2015 HT 2.1.0 added PE relocation handling, PE checksum calculation, AVR disassembly, broken-ELF crash fixes, and an updated minilzo. ### Adoptionsgeschichte HT is packaged across Unix-like systems because it fills a niche between a hex editor, file-format browser, disassembler, and lightweight reverse-engineering workbench. The input metadata records packages in Homebrew, Debian, MacPorts, Nix, Ubuntu, and openSUSE. Its SourceForge-era documentation also names GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, and Win32 as target systems, which explains why package recipes often need to preserve both Unix and Windows configuration behavior. ### Wie es verwendet wird Users open files in HT to inspect executable headers, sections, imports, exports, relocations, resources, disassembly, xrefs, labels, comments, and evaluator expressions. Analyzer state is stored beside the analyzed file as FILENAME.htcfg. The documentation records global configuration in ~/.htcfg2 on Unix and ht.cfg2 next to ht.exe on Windows, plus per-file analyzer state that restores labels, comments, and analysis metadata. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren HT matters to package nerds because it is a classic terminal reverse-engineering utility with deep file-format support and a long SourceForge-to-GitHub lineage. It is the kind of tool that remains useful even when newer GUI reverse-engineering platforms exist, because it is small enough to ship as a command-line package. It also illustrates a packaging edge case: a project homepage, historical release notes, generated documentation, and a moved official repository all matter when identifying the authoritative source. ### Zeitleiste - 1999-2004: Project copyright range appears on the official site footer for the original authorship era. - 2007: HT 2.0.10 release notes mention SSE5 opcode support. - 2008: HT 2.0.13 release notes mention Intel AVX opcodes. - 2013: HT 2.0.22 release notes mention editor scroll-offset work and bug fixes. - 2014: Official source repository moved to GitHub. - 2015: HT 2.1.0 released with PE, AVR, ELF-crash, and minilzo updates. ### Related projects - Related tools include hex editors, objdump/readelf-style binary inspection tools, disassemblers, debuggers, and reverse-engineering suites used for executable analysis. ### Quellen - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise Für ht wurde kein passendes lokales Secret-Handling-Manifest gefunden.
