Lite-Type-Converter

A simple GUI program that converts between several types such as Hex, Binary, ASCII, Octal

Introduction

Welcome adventurer! I wonder what brings you here to this desolated section of Github 🤔

Anyways, welcome to my first Github repository/project!

Lite Type Converter is a simple program which converts between different types, written in python using tkinter. It was then "compiled" into a single executable file using PyInstaller for it to be launched with a click of the mouse :happy:!

I wrote this as a simple type conversion tool that I can use offline without having to google every time I need to use one. I hope that it will find some use with you and that you will enjoy it :).

P.S Constructive feedback is greatly appreciated ^^

Main Features

• Lightweight and fast
• Easy to use GUI interface
• Several type conversions supported (Decimal, Hexadecimal, Octal, ASCII(String), Binary)
• No dependencies required

Usage

For most users, download the entire bundle folder inside the "dist" folder:

• https://github.com/Tkaixiang/Lite-Type-Converter/tree/master/dist

• Run the exe inside it "Lite Type Converter 0.11.exe"

However, if you would like to run the Original Python tkinter GUI

• Clone the repository
• Run Main.py

The GUI itself should be quite intuitive, simply:

1. Select an input type
2. Enter your input into the input field
3. Select an output type
4. Click on the "Converter" button. (Hint: You can press "Enter" as a shortcut)

However, do take note of the difference between Byte Mode and Normal Mode:

Byte Mode:

• Reads input as bytes separated by spaces (ASCII input need not have spaces)
• Output is also in bytes in the type you specified
• All type conversions supported

Normal Mode:

• Reads input as a continuous string without spaces
• Output is also as a continuous string/raw value
• Note: Only Hexadecimal -> ASCII is supported for converting to ASCII(String) in Normal Mode

Thank you for reading if you are still here, hope you enjoy :)!
