# bindrop

A streaming binary `cut` tool,  pipes `stdin` to `stdout`.

Byte-for-byte, **not UTF8 aware**.

## Examples

Drop bytes 4:8, every 17 bytes

``` bash

> echo -e 'whats in the box\nwho has the box?' | ./bindrop 4 8 17

what the box

who the box?

```

**Warning**: if the bytes read is not a multiple of the slice length (for example, 17 bytes), the remainder is truncated (dropped).
