    Re: Bin

    Rephrase your question, its not very clear what do you really mean?!

    A 'bin' file is typically the extension given to a binary executable. Either change permissions to execute it:

    # chmod +x filename.bin
    # ./filename.bin

    or use a shell interpreter to run it:

    # sh ./filename.bin

    Also read Command to run (execute) bin files in Linux and Before You Ask

    If what you want is to view binary files, then you might want to try a hex editor such as ghex.

    Code:
    sudo apt-get install ghex

    Generally i'd say 'objdump' is a good place to start, it comes with binutils unsurprisingly, and has plenty of options for getting info or disassembling object files.

    I hope you are not affiliated with the diablo himself.

    But your question makes absolutely no sense. Please ask a better question.

    What do you want to do?
    What file are you trying to run?
    Where did you get this file?
    What tutorial are you following?
    Are you trying to disassemble a binary file?
    Are you trying to look at the source code of a binary file?
    How is this related to programming?

    Answer some or all of these questions, and provide better information, in order to get better help.
