The squeeze feature is implement as for hexdump. Reoccurring lines will be squeezed together and visualized with an asterisk. Further hexyl received an additional command line argument '-v|--no-squeezing' to disable squeezing. Squeezing is enabled by default. If the squeezing goes until the end of the input data, an empty line with address next to last line will be printed to indicate the highest address (again similar to hexdump).
hexyl is a simple hex viewer for the terminal. It uses a colored output to distinguish different categories
of bytes (NULL bytes, printable ASCII characters, ASCII whitespace characters, other ASCII characters and non-ASCII).
