Update: byte-stats.py Version 0.0.7

Filed under: My Software,Update — Didier Stevens @ 20:59

My tool byte-stats.py calculates statistics for the files it analyzes. With option -l (and -p) , it produces a list of values for different parts of the file (buckets), for example a list of entropy values. With this, one can have an idea how the entropy changes inside a file.

But as the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words, so I added option -g to produce a very simple graph of these values (just a line, no axis or scale). This does not require any extra Python module, I use Python’s TkInter module, the standard GUI for Python.
