    And binwalk if you want to find the juice within the file.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;ReFirmLabs&#x2F;binwalk&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Supported-Signatures" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;ReFirmLabs&#x2F;binwalk&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Supported-Signatu...</a>

    You might be interested in GNU poke[1][2], a hex-editor type program that can actually parse and visualize the structure of binary data (using a DSL for describing formats).<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jemarch.net&#x2F;poke" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jemarch.net&#x2F;poke</a><p>[2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=34986042">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=34986042</a>

      I&#x27;ve been using ImHex[0] for this purpose, to pretty good effect.<p>[0]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;werwolv&#x2F;imhex" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;werwolv&#x2F;imhex</a>

    I always liked the 3D visualization in Veles[0]. It&#x27;s very intuitive to make out structured ASCII or other non-compressed sections in binary data.<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;codilime&#x2F;veles" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;codilime&#x2F;veles</a>
