regtobin

A Node.js script to convert the content of a binary key that was exported from the Windows registry to an actual binary file. (One use case: Construct a DSDT dump that can be compiled to something human-readable using iasl.)

Usage

node . something.reg

Will write the binary data to something.bin.

Implementation details

In case the .reg file format should ever change - these assumptions are being made:

• UCS-2 encoding
• "hex:" indicates the start of the content
• Bytes are separated by ","
