Someone suggested that Emacs has a hex edit mode but I can't seem to find
it?
Thanks
Paul

The command to use is `hexl-find-file' to open a new file, or
`hexl-mode' to edit an existing buffer in hex mode.

interactively:
M-x hexl-mode
or, to associate it to files with, say, .hex extension:
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.hex\\'" . hexl-mode))
in your .emacs.
