What is fred?
Forensic Registry EDitor (fred) is a cross-platform M$ registry hive editor. This project was born out of the need for a reasonably good registry hive viewer for Linux to conduct forensic analysis. Therefore it includes some functions not found in normal "free" registry editors like a hex viewer with data interpreter and a reporting function that can easily be extended with custom ECMAScript report templates.
