hhead Wiki

Welcome to the hhead wiki. This is the long-form companion to the project's README and DEVELOPMENT.md.

For users

  • Recipes — concrete how-tos: triaging a corrupt PNG, peeking inside a ZIP, spotting UTF-8 BOMs, reading minimaps, and so on.
  • FAQ — frequently asked questions about flags, output, performance, and limitations.
  • Format Internals — what hhead --meta actually inspects for each supported format, with byte offsets.

For developers

  • DEVELOPMENT.md in the main repo covers building, the module tree, the write_hex<W: Write> testing pattern, coding conventions, and how to add a new format parser.

Quick links

Wiki pages here are kept short and stable. Anything that changes per release (CLI flags, build steps, version pins) lives in the main repo's README / DEVELOPMENT.md instead.
