How do i decode a hexadecimal file?
The file is 151 byes.
It's given like this:
00000000 5d ca 4a 4a 41 41 41 41 41 41 1b 1d 17 6a 10 17
00000010 61 11 1a 11 1d 11 16 61 16 1b 17 10 17 6c 61 09
00000010 17 17 11 61 1b 16 61 17 11 61 79 6a 6b 41 41 81
00000010 01 4c 01 71 51 41 81 19 15 aa 11 51 18 d6 d9 a2
etc

What do you mean by decode? The ascii representation of the hex is already given to you
>>59917387
Judging by the picture you posted
25 hex = 37 dec = % in ASCII
50 hex = 80 dec = P in ASCII
It's not that hard to figure out.
The picture is just a stock photo.
if you have a hexdump like that, you can do xxd -r -p on GNU/Linux to revert it back to bytes.

I tried, but I don't know what the fileformat is.
I tried executing it, ranaming it to a picture, zip but nothing works.

The picture it just a stock photo i found on Google.
The actual hexdump is completely different.

Get IDA pro and either read in C pseudo code or assembly.
>decode a hexadecimal file
wut?
do you mean copy the hex strings and paste them on the hex display for a new file in hxd?!?
>>59918588
Use "file" command.
>>59918716
then dump the fucking hex.
imagine teaching rocket science to your cat.
you're the cat. hexadecimal code is your equivalent of rocket science.
I wrote a hex to ascii converter in C, takes a string in as an argument to the command and then prints them in either decimal or ascii
>>59917387
Run `file` on it.
>>59918588
pipe the data you created via xxd to a file and then use the `file` command on that file.xxd -r -p < hexdump_file > binary_output; file binary_output
>>59921384
binary_output: data
>>59923321
then its probably just data and you should figure out why you want the hexdump in the first place

you need an ibm 5100 to do that
