ELF section and binary file ASCII, UTF-8, and UTF-16 string extractor
A binary file and ELF executable printable string extractor, section inspector, and hex context viewer for Linux developers and system administrators. A lightweight Linux alternative to Sysinternals Strings for inspecting embedded text literals, shared library dependencies, build metadata, paths, and localization strings in compiled binaries.
Key features:
- Extracts printable ASCII, UTF-8, UTF-16LE, and UTF-16BE character sequences with configurable minimum string length from executables, shared objects, and binary files.
- Parses ELF64 and ELF32 headers and section tables (.interp, .rodata, .dynstr, .strtab, .comment) natively to map every string offset to its ELF section and virtual address.
- Categorizes extracted strings into shared libraries (.so), URLs, filesystem paths, IPv4 endpoints, environment variables, and symbols with instant regex and section filtering.
- Displays a surrounding hexadecimal and ASCII byte context dump for any selected string offset and exports results to TXT, CSV, and JSON formats.
Disclaimer: This project is an independent open-source tool and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Microsoft or Sysinternals.
