There is beav - binary editor and viewer. I use the Amiga port sometimes
but it is too EMACSy for my tastes. Bedides that fatal flaw, it is
quite good. It displays the file in various formats if you like, to
mention one thing.

VIm -Vi Improved, has a binary mode, more or less, which guarantees that
it does not spoil the file anymore than you do yourself. I also use this
sometimes.
