Extend FLOSS to use the rendering techniques pioneered by QUANTUMSTRAND

[mr-tz]

QUANTUMSTRAND is an experiment that augments traditional strings.exe output with context to aid in malware analysis and reverse engineering. For example, we show the structure of a file alongside its strings and mute/highlight entries based on their global prevalence, library association, expert rules, and more.

FLOSS should use the techniques pioneered by QUANTUMSTRAND to highlight important information while muting common and/or analytically irrelevant noise.

[mr-tz]

A good start would be to familiarize yourself with the tool, documentation, and source. Then you can browse the open issue list and/or ask focused questions.
