Binary Viewer is a tool for binary file discovery using visualizations that may highlight patterns.
See the project Wiki for some examples.
Loosely based on Cantor.Dust, Binary Viewer was developed after seeing a demo of Cantor.Dust but receiving no response regarding availability.
Since Cantor.Dust was demoed, other tools with have similar functionality became available.
