This is a simple script, written in Python, that perform a logical exclusion, XOR, on two files and saves the result in the destination file. It is one of the most simple and effective tool in my forensics-toolbox. I used this tool several times for example to recover data from a broken RAID 5 or deobfuscate an obfuscated binary or image. The usage is very simple and intuitive.
You can find the full code and examples in the repository.

Have fun!
