I get following error

xxd: The term 'xxd' is not recognized as a name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or executable program.
Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

Suggestion [3,General]: The command "xxd" was not found, but does exist in the current location.
PowerShell does not load commands from the current location by default (see ''Get-Help about_Command_Precedence'').

If you trust this command, run the following command instead:

Can you open source this? Because the PYD file I assume is the python compiled file with the actual magic in it. this should be able to work on all versions I assume?

@n6333373

n6333373 commented Nov 25, 2023

You can make it run on all platforms. But you hide some code in a PYD file, so it can only run in Windows.

Technically the real issue I encountered is that Sublime Merge's patch on Linux x64 is not stable. It's sort of randomly patched to 0/1/281. Most likely 281 but sometimes it requires 0/1.


Just make it works on Linux x64 too. I think patch patterns for Linux x64 are stable since I've used them for months.

As for arm64 or mac-x64, unfortunately I don't have condition for testing them.

I wonder whether I should open source it since there seems to be no one open sourcing a fully automatic patcher here. I know there is a Python patcher skeleton you provided but people has to figure out what they should put in there.

@n6333373

Yes, for all Sublime Text 4 (likely future) releases.

@bithack3r
Copy link

@bithack3r If you read the error message again, you will see the suggestion: use .\xxd.exe instead of xxd Because Win11 uses PowerShell instead of cmd.exe, and PowerShell doesn't use programs in the current folder by default.

I'm sorry but I don't follow what you're saying. Is there a difference in the script? or do I move xxd file to somewhere else?

That looks like the correct place. Even if on a unsupported platform, it should show in the "Help Menu" but blacked out. Is there any error in Sublime Text console?

Fixed it by ensuring it's copied only in C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Sublime Text\Packages. It also helped in patching the application in Windows11 (which I was struggling with the script).

Actually, it is being used quietly.😊
My idea is to increase the threshold and limit the use to a small area. That's why I don't provide more detailed or simpler ways to use it and reduce abuse.

You can use the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+2 to open it, or click on the "down arrow" and select "Command Prompt".
