spudw2k 231 Posted November 26, 2020 I could use some suggestions here and/or best practices. I have a binary file format I am crafting and working with. The general structure of the binary format is: [HEADER] [FIELD1MARKER] [DATA] [FIELD2MARKER] [DATA] [FIELD1MARKER] [DATA] [FIELD2MARKER] [DATA]..... I just want some ideas how to handle processing the file. My hope is to inspect the data from header to EOF, but I am hoping for a more elegant method than using BinaryMid and keeping track of the position. Thoughts and suggestions welcome. I can throw together pseudo data / code if necessary, but just hoping for some fundamentals.

This discussion may be of use, but it’s not, IMHO, a certainty. https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/188564-use-regexp-on-binary-data/#comments Code hard, but don’t hard code...
