Plugins

[meme]

Plans:

$HOME/.config/hexxed/plugins contains .dylib or .so executables which contain plugin_init. On Hexxed load, the entire folder will be enumerated and every plugin will be dlopen'ed and if plugin_init exists it will be called.

Plugins can choose to be:

1. Actions: when the user opens the actions menu the plugin will be listed there and the user selects it
2. File parser: has a callback which takes a buffer_t and fills in the generic header struct
3. Architecture: if the file has a supported file parser which specifies an architecture handled by this plugin, it can: a) Disassemble a slice of bytes b) Take an assembler string and base address and produce a slice of bytes c) In future: provide analysis information like jump destinations or data references
