Quick answers for Binary to Text
What format should the binary input be in?
Each character is one group of eight 0s and 1s. Spaces and line breaks between groups are ignored. Any other character shows the error Binary must contain only 0s and 1s. Leftover bits that do not fill a group are dropped without an error.
Does it handle UTF-8 or emoji?
No. Each group is read as a character code from 0 to 255 (Latin-1). ASCII and Western accented letters round-trip, but UTF-8 multi-byte sequences and emoji do not.
Can I convert text into binary too?
Yes. The text box and the binary box stay in sync, so typing in either one updates the other. Each character becomes its 8-bit code.
