Program Name: strings
Purpose: This is a Unix-compatible program to find printable strings
in an arbitrary file (generally an exe file).
Author: Alan Ballard
3452 West 11th Avenue,
Vancouver, B.C., Canada, V6R 2J9
Date: 8 June, 1990.
Use: The program is run in OS/2 command mode. It may be run in
a VIO window.
Usage: strings <options> <file>...
Zero or more filenames may be specified. Names may include
wildcards. If no name is specified, stdin is read.
Options: Options may be flagged with "-" or "/".
-a examine entire file. Without this, the program
examines only data segments of exe files.
-o prefix each string found with its offset from
the start of the file.
-x valid only with -o option; print the offset in hexadecimal.
-nnn print only strings containing at least the specified
number of printable characters. 3 is the default.
