I'd like to overwrite just one line of a binary file, based on a
position set by seek(). Is there no way to do this? As far as I can
tell I need to read the whole file, change the line, and write it all
back out. Not exactly easy on the memory, but I see no other solution.
so far:
patchme.seek(offset)
patchme.write(a2b_hex(edit)) # the data is in hex first
patchme.close
print "Patching complete"
This writes the data at the given offset, but _everything_ before it is
filled with 0's.
Sorry for the potentially n00b question, I'm stumped!
