bingrep is a cross-platform command-line binary parser and colorizer written in Rust, supporting ELF, Mach-O, PE, and Unix/BSD archives. It displays binary structures like symbols, sections, and relocations in colored tables, with experimental search and hex/range views.

Use cases

• inspect symbols and sections of an ELF binary from the terminal
• view Mach-O binary structure with colorized output
• demangle symbols in a compiled executable
• dump debug representation of a parsed binary
• print a hex table or file offset ranges of a binary
• search for strings inside ELF binaries
• analyze Unix/BSD archive files

When to choose

• you need a fast, colorized terminal view of binary file structures across ELF, Mach-O, and archives
• you want a lightweight alternative to objdump/readelf with demangling support
• you work in Rust and want a cargo-installable binary inspection tool

When to avoid

• you need full PE support beyond debug parsing
• you need disassembly or deep reverse-engineering features rather than structure inspection
• you need a GUI-based binary analysis tool
