STRINGS(1) General Commands Manual STRINGS(1)
NAME
strings - find the printable strings in a object, or other binary, file
SYNOPSIS
strings [ - ] [ -a ] [ -o ] [ -t format ] [ -number ] [ -n number ] [--] [file ...]
DESCRIPTION
Strings looks for ASCII strings in a binary file or standard input. Strings is useful for identifying random object files and many other
things. A string is any sequence of 4 (the default) or more printing characters ending with a newline or a null. Unless the - flag is
given, strings looks in all sections of the object files except the (__TEXT,__text) section. If no files are specified standard input is
read.
The file arguments may be of the form libx.a(foo.o), to request information about only that object file and not the entire library. (Typ-
ically this argument must be quoted, ``libx.a(foo.o)'', to get it past the shell.)
The options to strings(1) are:
-a This option causes strings to look for strings in all sections of the object file (including the (__TEXT,__text) section.
- This option causes strings to look for strings in all bytes of the files (the default for non-object files).
-- This option causes strings to treat all the following arguments as files.
-o Preceded each string by its offset in the file (in decimal).
-t format
Write each string preceded by its byte offset from the start of the file. The format shall be dependent on the single character
used as the format option-argument:
d The offset shall be written in decimal.
o The offset shall be written in octal.
x The offset shall be written in hexadecimal.
-number
The decimal number is used as the minimum string length rather than the default of 4.
-n number
Specify the minimum string length, where the number argument is a positive decimal integer. The default shall be 4.
-arch arch_type
Specifies the architecture, arch_type, of the file for strings(1) to operate on when the file is a universal file. (See arch(3) for
the currently know arch_types.) The arch_type can be "all" to operate on all architectures in the file, which is the default.

BUGS
The algorithm for identifying strings is extremely primitive.
