echo-devim / huextract Goto Github PK

I started working on improving this program:

• added a more comprehensive UI with clap, which provides out of the box --help switch for example
• lot of code refactoring (with different crate level types and the corresponding methods)
• added checksum verification when extracting img files
• added pretty displaying of img headers in the UPDATE.APP file
• some other stuff (see --help for details)

I also plan to add a README.md file.

FYI, I removed multithreaded extraction of the files as IMO, the bottleneck is not the CPU but the disk IO, which is not improved by multithreading (which I verified at some point when benchmarking the extraction time for the single threaded version and the huextract.bin file present in the repo). It can be added back, and activated through a command line switch for example.

All the work can be checked at https://github.com/rogarb/huextract/tree/v2.0, I can create a PR if it is of interest to you.
