Take an example of objdump -x on a file..

I’m curious what strings are in that .rodata.str1.1 section vs the .rodata section. I’d really like a gtk UI that allows me to click that entry, and have it expand to show me what’s in there. The app could be extra smart and have knowledge about what to do for specific sections, (like passing .text to objdump -d). For sections it doesn’t grok, it could just print a hexdump.

Anything like this already exist?
