I have a memory dump from a machine I am trying to analyze. I can view the file in a hex editor to see text strings in the binary code. I don't see a way to save these ascii representations of the binary, so I went digging into Python to see if there were any modules to help.
I found one I think might do what I want it to do - the binascii module. Can anyone describe to me how to convert a raw binary file to an ascii file using this module. I've tried? Boy, I've tried. Am I correct in assuming I can get the converted binary to ascii text I see in a hex editor using this module? I'm new to this forensics thing and it's quite possible I am mixing technical terms. I am not new to Python, however. Thanks for your help. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
