sigmatch

A memory signature search library for the Windows platform written in Rust.

Features

• 🧩 Fluent API: Clear, logical calls for complex search workflows.

• ✨ Ergonomic: Ready to use, supports multiple signature formats.

• 🛡️ Robust Errors: Based on thiserror, rich context, panic-free.

• 🧱 Safe Memory: Auto skips inaccessible regions for stable scans.

• 🚀 Extreme Performance: Fast and stable by design.

• 🧪 Optimized & Tested: Actively tested, continually improved.

Quick Use

Assuming you've obtained the signatures via IDA-Pro-SigMaker.
