The Releases page has standalone packages for Windows and Mac, as well as installable packages for popular Linux distributions, or you can install them from a distribution package repository as described below.
The same packages are also produced for Git commits (look for the tick), if you want to try the development/unreleased versions.
Debian
First, you will need to add my APT signing key to your system:
wget -qO - https://repos.solemnwarning.net/debian-key.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
Add the following lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list
file:
deb http://repos.solemnwarning.net/debian/ CODENAME main
deb-src http://repos.solemnwarning.net/debian/ CODENAME main
Replace CODENAME
with the version you're running (e.g. buster
or stretch
).
Finally, you can install the package:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install rehex

First, you will need to add my APT signing key to your system:

Add the following lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list
file:
deb http://repos.solemnwarning.net/ubuntu/ CODENAME main

Building
If you want to compile on Linux, just check out the source and run make
. You will need Jansson, wxWidgets and capstone installed, along with their development packages (Install build-essential
, git
, libwxgtk3.0-dev
, libjansson-dev
and libcapstone-dev
on Ubuntu).
The resulting build can be installed using make install
, which accepts all the standard environment variables.
For Windows or Mac build instructions, see the relevant README: README.Windows.mdREADME.OSX.md
