That's excellent! Would be very cool to also have frequency digraphs for the current segment.

  Frequency analysis and byte dot plots are definitely on the way. Do you have a concrete example of the digraph frequency feature you can link me to? Any other feature suggestions are welcome too.

    The link below to the Cantor Dust presentation shows 2d and 3d examples. I wonder if there are advantages of other space-filling curves, like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sierpi%C5%84ski_curve http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sierpi%C5%84ski_curve and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peano_curve http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peano_curve

      Right - these are the frequency dot plots I first saw in Greg Conti's work (some examples here: http://sebug.net/paper/Meeting-Documents/BlackHat-USA2008/BH_US_08_Conti_Dean_Visual_Forensic_Analysis.pdf http://sebug.net/paper/Meeting-Documents/BlackHat-USA2008/BH...). They're definitely on the way. Regarding other space-filling curves - I'm in two minds about this. I've implemented z-order and the H-curve for binvis, but for different reasons neither of these are as useful as the Hilbert curve, so they're not exposed in the interface. My feeling now is that I should pick one locality preserving layout and one intuitive layout to keep things simple and usable. I want binvis to be a workaday tool, so I'm keeping my space-filling curve geekery to another project (https://github.com/cortesi/scurve https://github.com/cortesi/scurve).
