Description

What is the feature you'd like to have?

  • Allow segments to have a name column - mach-o binaries support this
  • Flags should show initial and max protection levels
  • Double clicking the section or segment name should go to the load command
  • Sections should sort by address by default not name
  • BUG: sometimes changing the section or segment leaves outline artifacts that go away when you scroll the view
