Universal binary format for waveform storage
« on: September 04, 2023, 12:12:11 am »
http://github.com/brycecherry75/UniversalAWGBIN - I am currently seeking input from potential users.
If it runs on Linux, there is some hackability in it.

No comment on the format itself, since https://xkcd.com/927/

But this "all values are in big-endian form (Least Significant Byte first)" is a contradicting statement. LSB first is LE. And quite obviously LE is the best order for binary files like this.

What's the use case, more specifically?  The docs in github say it's for AWG waveform storage.  I'm curious to know the ways you think people might use this format.
