"vis_heap_chunks"-like display of heap like in pwndbg #30

Closed OevreFlataeker closed 3 years ago

OevreFlataeker commented 4 years ago

I am using pwndbg in addition to GEF and I really like the "vis_heap_chunks" feature of pwndbg to visualize the heap. (https://browserpwndbg.readthedocs.io/en/docs/commands/heap/vis_heap_chunks/)

The color printout with ASCII-art arrows that annotate the various heap chunks is very helpful in my opinion.

I'd love to see that kind of display in GEF as well :-D

Thanks for considering!

Thanks @OevreFlataeker & @Kyle-Kyle for the suggestion.

Happy to take some insights/PRs, cheers!
