ELFTUI

A TUI project written in C This TUI parses the ELF header from the binary, like you can use /usr/bin/ls \n it can see the info like where the program header table starts, what is the size of each entry,

Features

• Unified Union Architecture: Uses a custom C union to overlay Elf32_Ehdr and Elf64_Ehdr, executing a single, clean 64-byte read without temporary arrays or file rewinds.
• Strict Data Separation: Isolates raw binary data parsing from standard output formatting. The parser populates a clean Elf_Metadata domain structure, leaving the UI completely decoupled.
• Extensive Metadata Extraction:
  • Ident Array (e_ident): Class (32 vs 64-bit), Endianness (Little vs Big Endian), Version, OS/ABI (System V, GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, etc.), and ABI Version.
  • Header Struct: Object File Type (Executable, Shared Object, Relocatable, Core) and target CPU Architecture (x86-64, ARM, Itanium, SPARC, etc.).
