Ask HN: What software do you use to examine binary files?
There are a few hex/disk editors that support "templates" (but you need most times to create those yourself).
Here is a sort of "curated list" of related tools:
https://github.com/dloss/binary-parsing
The most complete/populated I know of is Kaitai:
http://kaitai.io/
http://formats.kaitai.io/
that you can use with Hiew with Kiewtai
https://github.com/taviso/kiewtai
If the question is slightly different, i.e. which bytes are used to identify a given file format, there is Trid:
https://mark0.net/soft-trid-e.html
Which has also a database of known headers/patterns.
