BinText

BinText is a tiny and portable piece of software developed for programmers who want to extract text from various file types and locate ASCII code, Unicode and Resource strings.
Since installation is not required, you can simply drop the executable file anywhere on the hard drive and run it.
But you may also save BinText to a USB flash drive or other similar storage device, and run it on any computer. Therefore, you can keep the tool in your pocket whenever you're on the move.
The most important aspect is that the Windows Registry section is not updated with entries (thus, reducing the risk of system errors), and files are not left behind on the hard drive after removing the app.
The interface of the tool is made from a standard window with an uncomplicated layout. Loading a file into the workspace is done with the help of either the file browser or "drag and drop" method.
BinText shows the file and memory position, ID, text, elapsed time and text size for each resource, together with the ASCII, Unicode or Resource value. It is possible to use a search function and to save details to a plain text document (TXT) for further analysis.
Moreover, you can filter the scanning procedure by specifying the characters included in a string's definition, string size and mandatory items included. These options may be restored to their factory values.
The straightforward program runs on a pretty low quantity of CPU and system memory, so it doesn't affect the computer's performance. It has a good response time and scans files rapidly, without making Windows hang, crash or pop up error dialogs. Although the app has not been updated for a pretty long time, BinText supplies programmers with a simple solution to gather resources from a file.
