Changelog

After many months I can finally release a new version. I'm really sorry for the delay but I'm currently working full time on my bachelor's thesis so I don't have much free time to work on ImHex right now. Hopefully in a few weeks again though :)

Additions

  • Added a new and super fancy splash screen!
    • All resource loading will now be done while this screen is shown
  • Added German localization. Thanks a lot to @tumGER for proof reading!
  • Added Italian localization. Thanks a lot to @CrustySean!
  • Updated ImHex icon with a new one
  • Added FPS limiting
    • ImHex is now less power hungry and lowers its FPS to 5 when the window loses focus
  • Added Paste, Undo and Redo function!
    • This has LONG been overdue
  • Added saving and loading of data processor setups
  • Added data size node to the data processor
  • Added ability to copy values from the data inspector
  • Data overlays now work everywhere
    • This means if the data processor changed the displayed data, this data will also show up in the pattern data view, inspector, analyzer, disassembler and every where else
  • Added parent keyword to the pattern language
    • This allows you to access variables that are found in the parent of the current structure
  • Added array index syntax to r-values in the pattern language
    • This also turned the addressof and sizeof built-in function into operators now so they no longer require ""
  • Added UTF-16 character type and strings to the pattern language
  • Allow nested use of types in the pattern language
  • Added dataSize() function to the pattern language to get the currently loaded data size
  • Added base_address pragma to the pattern language to automatically set the file's base address
  • Loaded plugins are now displayed on the welcome screen
  • Added slider to entropy graph to quickly skip through the file
  • Added Recent Files to File menu
  • Added ability to lock bookmarks so they can't be edited anymore until unlocked
  • Added Font Awesome icons in a few places
  • Use correct folder paths on Mac and Linux instead of looking for everything next to the executable
    • Check the README to know where things are supposed to go now!
  • Added memory usage footer item on Windows
  • Added buffer combine, slice and repeat nodes to the data processor
  • Added currently loaded file name to the window title
  • Added Close File option to the File Menu
  • Added hex editor color highlighting opacity setting

Improvements

  • Pattern language execution, disassembling, searching and many other things that may take a long time to complete are now run asynchronously
  • Properly open some default views on first launch
  • Greatly improved the Data Analyzer interface with ImPlot
  • ImHex now uses the system file dialog instead of a custom one to open files
  • Improved colors used on the welcome screen
  • Variables placed out of bounds are now discarded instead of causing a error
  • Improved goto command to now respect base addresses

Bug fixes

  • Fixed multiple severe memory leaks in the pattern language
  • Fixed bookmark names and comments refusing to be changed
  • Fixed color attribute requiring a 0x prefix to understand the value
  • Fixed region selection event only selecting first byte
  • Fixed eval_depth default value being way too low
  • Fixed ternary expressions in the pattern language not working everywhere
  • Fixed bookmark name and comment not being loaded properly from a project file
  • Fixed binary value in base converter being shifted by one
  • Fixed pointers in the pattern language easily crashing ImHex
  • Fixed MIME-based pattern loading popup being almost unusable. Thanks to @ThisALV for making me aware of this
