<Question>

When editing a dataset of long record length (in sample case, 10,000 bytes * 1 record) with hex line editor on, the performance becomes very slow sometimes freeze.

<Answer>

The text editor is meant to edit source and text. The hex editor was designed to support source files that have a mix of display and non-display bytes in the source. Source files are typically 80 characters or less.

File-AID is meant to edit data files and has a hex mode. If you have access to File-AID, please use it.
