-- Pack and unpack binary data.
--
-- THIS LIBRARY IS DEPRECATED! Please use builtin Lua 5.3 string.pack facilities.
--
-- A problem script authors often face is the necessity of encoding values
-- into binary data. For example after analyzing a protocol the starting
-- point to write a script could be a hex dump, which serves as a preamble
-- to every sent packet. Prior to Lua 5.3, NSE included a bin library, based on lpack
-- (http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/~lhf/ftp/lua/) by Luiz Henrique de Figueiredo.
-- This library is now reimplemented using Lua 5.3 string.pack facilities. New scripts and libraries
-- should adopt Lua 5.3's native string.pack.
--
-- The Binlib functions take a format string to encode and decode binary
-- data. Packing and unpacking are controlled by the following operator
-- characters:
-- * H
hex string
-- * x
null byte
-- * z
zero-terminated string
-- * p
string preceded by 1-byte integer length
-- * P
string preceded by 2-byte integer length
-- * a
string preceded by 4-byte integer length
-- * A
string
-- * f
float
-- * d
double
-- * n
Lua number
-- * c
char (1-byte integer)
-- * C
byte = unsigned char (1-byte unsigned integer)
-- * s
short (2-byte integer)
-- * S
unsigned short (2-byte unsigned integer)
-- * i
int (4-byte integer)
-- * I
unsigned int (4-byte unsigned integer)
-- * l
long (8-byte integer)
-- * L
unsigned long (8-byte unsigned integer)
-- * <
little endian modifier
-- * >
big endian modifier
-- * =
native endian modifier
--
-- Note that the endian operators work as modifiers to all the
-- characters following them in the format string.
