A focused desktop explorer for Mach-O binaries, archives, and dyld shared cache.

Language: English | Jian Ti Zhong Wen

• Open and inspect Mach-O / Fat Mach-O / .a archive / dyld shared cache in one UI.
• Drill from structure to code quickly: sections, symbols, disassembly, xref, call graph hints.
• Understand modern Apple binaries better: ObjC metadata, Swift metadata, dyld exports/fixups.
• Work safely on suspicious files with hardened parser checks and regression coverage.

• Rich binary views: load commands, sections, symbols, relocations, strings.
• Optional Capstone disassembly for __TEXT,__text.
• Swift semantic graph (__swift5_*) and ObjC metadata browsing.
• Dyld shared cache image listing/extraction and direct drill-in workflow.
• Productive table UX: filter, copy row(s), CSV export, keyboard navigation.
• Built-in update check with reminder options and release-page guidance.

• Latest release: https://github.com/everettjf/MachOExplorer/releases/latest
• Homebrew:

1. Launch MachOExplorer.
2. Open a sample binary (sample/simple or sample/complex) or your own Mach-O file.
3. Navigate from Layout tree to sections/symbols/disassembly views.

Run full analysis in command-line mode and output to stdout or file:

Common options:

• --format text|json output format (default text)
• --output write analysis output to file
• --max-rows limit rows per table (0 means unlimited)
• --max-depth limit tree depth (0 means unlimited)
• --include-empty include empty nodes
