This Gist covers 4 methods to embed arbitrary binary files (images, data, etc.) inside an executable.
From standard approaches (byte arrays) to low-level hacks like binary appending (copy /b), each method includes ready-to-use examples in Visual C++.
Use cases:
- Single-file deployment (no external resources).
- Hiding data inside .exe/.elf (no encryption).
- Quick prototyping or educational purposes.
