Hi,
I need to insert strings "0000 00" at the each line within the file.
The postion is 37 to 42.
ex.
name1 name2 0000 00
nam name 0000 00
The "0000 00" in two lines should be lined up.
I don't know why it's not lined up when I posted it.
Can anyone help? (14 Replies)
Hello,
I would like to find an efficient way to compare a pair of strings that differ at one position, and return the difference and position.
For example:
String1 123456789
String2 123454789
returning something - position 6, 6/4
Thanks in advance,
Mike (5 Replies)

strings
STRINGS(1) GNU Development Tools STRINGS(1)NAME
strings - print the strings of printable characters in files.
SYNOPSIS
strings [-afov] [-min-len]
[-n min-len] [--bytes=min-len]
[-t radix] [--radix=radix]
[-e encoding] [--encoding=encoding]
[-] [--all] [--print-file-name]
[--target=bfdname]
[--help] [--version] file...
DESCRIPTION
For each file given, GNU strings prints the printable character sequences that are at least 4 characters long (or the number given with the
options below) and are followed by an unprintable character. By default, it only prints the strings from the initialized and loaded sec-
tions of object files; for other types of files, it prints the strings from the whole file.
strings is mainly useful for determining the contents of non-text files.
OPTIONS -a
--all
- Do not scan only the initialized and loaded sections of object files; scan the whole files.
-f
--print-file-name
Print the name of the file before each string.
--help
Print a summary of the program usage on the standard output and exit.
-min-len
-n min-len
--bytes=min-len
Print sequences of characters that are at least min-len characters long, instead of the default 4.
-o Like -t o. Some other versions of strings have -o act like -t d instead. Since we can not be compatible with both ways, we simply
chose one.
-t radix
--radix=radix
Print the offset within the file before each string. The single character argument specifies the radix of the offset---o for octal, x
for hexadecimal, or d for decimal.
-e encoding
--encoding=encoding
Select the character encoding of the strings that are to be found. Possible values for encoding are: s = single-7-bit-byte characters
(ASCII, ISO 8859, etc., default), S = single-8-bit-byte characters, b = 16-bit bigendian, l = 16-bit littleendian, B = 32-bit bigen-
dian, L = 32-bit littleendian. Useful for finding wide character strings.
--target=bfdname
Specify an object code format other than your system's default format.
-v
--version
Print the program version number on the standard output and exit.
