cpp? that's a preprocessor. u mean c++?

LLM won't help you much if u can't understand what it's talking about.

Manual way is, given ELF (linux executable format) somexe,

$ strings somexe

$ objdump -d somexe

$ objdump -s -j .ro data somexe

then look+ponder over the results.

and/or running ghidra (as mouse'd UI) over it.. which may help somewhat but not 100%

Have in mind, that objdump and ghidra have opposite ways of showing assembly transfer/multi-operand instructions - one has mov dest,target , other has mov target,dest - for same code.

no idea on (recent) windoze front. IDA ?
