 +====== VI as hex editor ======
 +if you just need to look into a binary file and are not happy with the ASCII version of it, try vi's hex mode. 
 +
 +open your file in vi and then enter this command to enable the hex edit mode: 
 +  :%!xxd
 +
 +to get back to normal ascii mode use this command: 
 +  :%!xxd -r
