About:
Dwarf is a command-line utility designed for inspecting and manipulating object file formats, particularly DWARF debugging information. It provides developers with a powerful interface to examine and modify the internal structure of compiled binaries. This tool is essential for low-level debugging and binary analysis tasks.

Key Features:

Inspect DWARF debugging information in object files
Manipulate object file structures and metadata
Command-line interface for scripting and automation
Support for various object file formats

Use Cases:

Debugging compiled binaries at the object file level
Modifying DWARF sections in executables
Binary analysis and reverse engineering workflows

Alternatives:

objdump – Standard GNU tool for object file inspection, less focused on DWARF manipulation
readelf – ELF-specific analysis tool, provides detailed ELF structure examination
dwarfdump – DWARF-specific dumping utility, part of libdwarf package
