Sorry for taking so long.
There are few point against doing this in cdt.ui.
- The Hex editor is general.
- We(I) would like the cdt to not be a "dumping" ground for all sort
of utilities. Because of the code maintainance nightmare.
The proposition is to take advantage of the uniq design of Eclipse
and make the Hex editor a plugin, that users could enable/disable.
say:
org.thomas.HexEditor
