Recently having a requirement to do some stuff with a packed/binary protocol, and not being the greatest fan of C (or rather, the effort involved with, and the userland around it), I decided to use Python and the relatively excellent Construct library for this.

pip install construct after initializing a venv, fire up some test data, and so far so good.
