Search file for binary pattern

[junkmauler@gmail.com]

I need a pre-made class (this is way over my head.. I can imagine the
pseudo code but cant implement it myself) that can search a file for a
specified binary pattern.

Actually what I really need is a way to read in a buffer (say 4k) and
search that buffer for multiple binary patterns, which would require a
smart sliding window to search a large amount of patterns in a short
amount of time.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Hi,

Regual expressions are great for searching for patterns
