Errors-To: icon-group-errors@cs.arizona.edu
Literal strings in Icon programs are placed, uncompressed, in the
icode ("exectuable") file produced by icont. They will be at
the end of the file, so you need (at least on our system)
strings - foo
where foo is produced by
icont foo.icn
It might be wise to surround the literal with nulls or newlines to
be sure strings(1) finds it -- I'm not sure that such strings are
automatically null-terminated by icont.
