Future Functionality

First priority is to allow extraction of files. Other short term priorities include:

• Plugin viewer system to allow for better viewing of specific file types (mainly utilizing libyal):
  • Plists
  • Events (Evt,Evtx)
  • USN
  • etc

Foreseen Shortcomings

Currently not sure how to implement a method for viewing objects (files, volumes, disk) in hex. I will soon remove the hex pane. I could always use help with this project and this is one of many areas that is beyond me. Because volumes, disk, and files can be very large in size, I dont think it would work to read the file to the hex pane. I believe what needs to be done is attach to the scroll and read sections of the I/O object that corresponds to viewer position. Not sure how to implement such a system.
