> Collection of posters and diagrams that dissect file formats byte by byte, published as PNG and PDF images. The binary posters cover executables (ELF, DOS COM and EXE, NE, LE, PE, Mach-O and fat Mach-O, Java class, Dalvik DEX, Python bytecode, SWF, GameCube/Wii DOL and Switch NRO) along with image, video, archive, document, sound and serialization formats, x86 and x64 opcode charts and Dalvik, JVM and .NET opcode tables. The more detailed 101 series explains PE, ELF, Mach-O, ZIP, Java class, PDF, COM and WAV files and includes Inkscape sources and proof-of-concept files.
