Reverse Engineering Unknown File Formats with ImHex

  I’ve had a lot of luck with ImHex looking at various binary formats and even using it to aid in writing some file magic.

  It would be really nice to be able to roundtrip C headers with it. The syntax is close, but often I older formats there is a 1:1 mapping with C structs that doesn’t quite match the imhex syntax.

  I may feed it into an LLM to strip out the spoilers actually
