of bytes (NULL bytes, printable ASCII characters, ASCII whitespace characters, other ASCII characters and non-ASCII).

```
If you use an older version of Ubuntu, you can download
the latest `.deb` package from the release page and install it via:

``` bash
sudo dpkg -i hexyl_0.7.0_amd64.deb  # adapt version number and architecture
```

### On Debian

If you run Debian Buster or newer, you can install the [officially maintained Debian package](https://packages.debian.org/buster/hexyl):
```bash
sudo apt-get install hexyl
```

If you run an older version of Debian, see above for instructions on how to
manually install `hexyl`.
