Hi,

Needed ideas on good hex editors/assemblers/disassemblers for Mac, other than gdb.

Why refer Wikipedia when we have SO?...

Why duplicate such a comprehensive list?

0xED is a good hex editor for the Mac. It's written in Cocoa and fairly intuitive(how complicated can a hex editor be?)

In terms of disassemblers (outside of gdb/otool), I don't think you'll find anything that beats IDA Pro. IDA has a limited console version available for Mac OS X, but the GUI in Windows is far better(I recommend you use this for any serious disassembly work).

In terms of assemblers, as is the only way to go(that I know of, anyway).

Hex fiend, http://ridiculousfish.com/hexfiend/

Does Hex fiend work as a disassembler?....I don't think so.

No it doesn't. It isn't clear from your question that you want all three in one app.

VIM , I think this is good enough ... MVIM

Recently I published my new free Mac tool for analysis of binary files: Synalyze It! . This includes a full-featured hex editor. It's not a (dis)asssembler yet.
