A simple command-line tool that converts any file into a C/C++ header file containing the file's contents as bytecode.

Features

• Convert any file to bytecode array in a header file
• Progress bar visualization during conversion
• Support for drag-and-drop or command-line arguments
• Automatic safe variable naming
• Real-time conversion progress display

Usage

# Using command line arguments
ByteForge input_file [output_file.h]

# Interactive mode
ByteForge
> Please enter the file path: input_file

The tool will generate a header file containing:

• An unsigned int array with the file's bytecode
• A constant with the array size

Output Example

unsigned int example_data[] = {
    0x89, 0x50, 0x4E, 0x47, 0x0D, 0x0A, 0x1A, 0x0A,
    // ... more bytes ...
};

const size_t example_data_size = sizeof(example_data);
