/**
* @author Allen Choong
* @version 0.0.1
* @date 2012-03-05
*
* This is a simple hex editor. The motivation is to make a
* cross platform hex editor, targeted on Android, build on Linux,
* that can edit the file through adb shell.
* Because using external hex editor, such as hexedit, ghex, bless,
* they work on Linux, with GUI. Though hexedit works as command-line, it
* requires ncurses. ncurses does not work on "adb shell".
*
* Functions
* Dump
* From where to where
* Edit byte
* Edit bytes
* Interactive
*
* Todo:
* Interactive mode
* Search like grep
