Hex diff viewer using alignment algorithms from biology
Hello, I just wanted to share what looks like a glitch in the alignment algo, see pic. There is a whole segment at the bottom that was flagged as entirely...
Feature request: Do not crash when aligning larger files when Local or Global algoritm is selected
With files larger than ~1MB, biodiff crashes when using the Local or Global algorithm, as it runs out of memory. I'd prefer if it aborted the align with an error...
Hi, would it be possible to add a non-TUI mode to allow piping to less etc? if so i guess some command line arguments would be convenient also.
This little tool is an actual life saver, is there any chance you could add a feature where it watches the two input files, and then updates when they're changed?...
Very often I find myself counting (horizontal) byte offsets. While the hex space option already helps a lot, it's still not optimal. I would love to see a header like...
It would be great to have the option to update on file changes (fsnotify). This way one can e.g. continously dump some registers block using a script and have a...
When setting a specific column count, columns are silently cut off if the window width is too small. It might be a good idea to visualize that somehow, e.g. by...
When opening big files it would be useful to collapse large regions of identical bytes so that more differences can be shown on one screen. Similar to what `diff` does...
When opening big files that have large holes it is sometimes difficult to force the algorithm to pair up the correct bytes. For example, I have a modified file that...
I came across this library when looking for binary diff implementations. This is pretty nice implementation and incredibly fast. I was interested in using it as a library for a...
