This is a library for loading, modifying and saving Intel HEX files. This file format is frequently used for firmware images on microcontrollers.
Here's an example use:
# Load a file. Note the little memory map of the file contents
iex> hex = IntelHex.load!("./test/test.hex")
%IntelHex{0x0->26B|0x1B->15B|0x2B->31B}
# Take a look at the first two 16-bit integers
iex> <<x::little-16, y::little-16>> = IntelHex.get(hex, 0, 4); {x, y}
{6146, 512}
# Change them to {1, 2}
iex> hex = IntelHex.set(hex, 0, <<1::little-16, 2::little-16>>)
%IntelHex{0x0->26B|0x1B->15B|0x2B->31B}
# Check that it worked.
iex> <<x::little-16, y::little-16>> = IntelHex.get(hex, 0, 4); {x,y}
{1, 2}
# Save it to a new file
iex> IntelHex.save(hex, "new.hex")
:ok
