Released v1.3.3. of #Yaralyzer, my surprisingly popular tool for visualizing YARA rule matches with colors (a lot of colors).

1. --export-png images lets you export images of the analysis

2. almost all command line options (including multi argument ones like --yara-rules-dir) can be permanently set via environment variables or .yaralyzer file

3. couple of small bug fixes and debugging related command line options

You can try it on the web here: https://yaratoolkit.securitybreak.io/
(I didn't build this website, Thomas Roccia from Microsoft just integrated Yaralyzer into his existing site)

- Github: https://github.com/michelcrypt4d4mus/yaralyzer
- Pypi: https://pypi.org/project/yaralyzer/
- on macOS you can also get it with #Homebrew by installing Pdfalyzer: brew install pdfalyzer
