ZeroOne

All your input is processed by the computer in groups of ones and zeros. There are multiple combinations to represent all existing characters, and this type of code is known as binary. In case you’re really fond of it, ZeroOne comes as a special kind of text editor where all your input is done in binary code, while result is a series of readable characters.

The first thing you notice is that the application is good to go as soon as download is done. This means you’re able to carry it around on a thumb drive to use on other computers besides your own. Since registry entries are not modified during the whole operation you don’t have to worry about the health status of the PC you use it on.

As far as the visual design is concerned, the application provides all functions in a clean interface which makes accommodation a walk in the park for beginners and experienced individuals alike. A large list of characters is shown along with corresponding binary trigger code, a results field, as well as input field.

Your mouse has little to no use here, because all input is done from the keyboard. The way in which this works is by writing groups of ones and zeros, until the appropriate character shows up in the output field. A cool thing here is that characters in the preview area get filtered out as you add characters to help out.

Whenever incorrect input is provided you’re clearly notified. There’s also a special combination which takes you in a command mode. Here you can choose to open and save TXT files, but exporting can also be done by manually copying characters from the output field.

All things considered, we can safely state that ZeroOne doesn’t necessarily come with actual practicality, but is a fun method of trying to increase your skill and knowledge of binary code recognition.
