2010-09-16 15:35:13 Alexander Belchenko description Sometimes it could be useful to search in the hex file content for the string or the pattern, i.e. python hex-grep [OPTIONS] PATTERN HEX_FILE... Possible options: -i = ignore the case -s = pattern is the substring to look for, not the regular expression. For matches found we can just print name of the file and offset. Maybe provide a little context as hex dump. Sometimes it could be useful to search in the hex file content for the string or the pattern, i.e. python hex-grep [OPTIONS] PATTERN HEX_FILE... Possible options: -i - ignore the case -F - pattern is the substring to look for, not the regular expression. --hex=XXX - pattern is the chain of hex bytes to look for, e.g. --hex="2A FF 3C" For matches found we can just print name of the file and offset. Maybe provide a little context as hex dump.
