+  
+binhop is a **file carving visualizer**, powered by binwalk.
+
+It makes clear what parts of a blob can be extracted, so you can
+take action on the parts that didn't.<br />
+binhop relies entirely on a functioning installation of binwalk.

+
+## Usage
+
+To use the script, run the following command:
+
+```
+binhop <path-to-binary-file>
+```
+
+Alternatively, you can run binhop on data from STDIN like so:
+
+```
+binhop < <path-to-binary-file-or-stream>
+```
+
+## Installation
+
+To use this script, you need Python 3 and a functioning and "recent" version of `binwalk` installed on your system. You'll probably also want to install optional `binwalk` dependencies such as `sasquatch`, `jefferson`, and others. You can learn how to do that in the [binwalk documentation](https://github.com/ReFirmLabs/binwalk/blob/master/INSTALL.md).
+
+When that's done, install the Python dependencies for `binhop`, running something like:
+
+```
+git clone https://github.com/darrylnixon/binhop.git
+cd binhop
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+pip install .
+```
