Provide an "Auto" entry/hotkey that just checks for the magic and selects the right parser.

I picked alternating blue and white to highlight fields, but I should experiment and find a better color palette.

Note to self: it's easy to add this, just choose some colors and add them to this array, they'll automatically get added to the rotation.

static HEM_BYTE ColorMarkers[] = {
    MKCOLOR(HEM_WHITE, HEM_LIGHTBLUE),
    MKCOLOR(HEM_LIGHTBLUE, HEM_WHITE),
};

The first release copies all the data to analyze and gives it to Kaitai, but this isn't necessary - I could change how KaitaiStream works to only request data as it needs it, which would use much less memory.

This would require some duktape callbacks, but shouldn't be a problem.

By adding values next to the label names, the Label view would be even more useful:
not just for navigating, but also understanding - particularly useful to understand an enum or a mask.

Please provide a license file.

It makes more sense to filter the parser list instead of searching it.

This should be easy enough, just rebuild the menu list.

There's a bug in the Elf .ksy that causes an exception on some well-formed Elf files, I filed it upstream at kaitai-io/kaitai_struct#754

I think they're saying this commit might fix it:

kaitai-io/kaitai_struct_formats#279

Remember to import this fix and rebuild for the next release.

Note: the exception is harmless, it just stops parsing earlier than expected
