Strings edit 2.1 (Default branch)
This library provides I/O facilities for integer, floating-point, Roman numbers, and strings. Both input and output subroutines support string pointers for consequent stream processing. The output can be aligned in a fixed size field with padding. Numeric input can be checked against expected values range to be either saturated or to raise an exception. For floating-point output either relative or absolute output precision can be specified. UTF-8 encoded strings are supported. License: GNAT Modified GPL (GMGPL) Changes:
This version enhances UTF-8 support. Several packages were added. Strings_Edit.UTF8.Blocks declares the ranges (blocks) of code points as defined by the standard. Strings_Edit.UTF8.Categorization provides categorization of Unicode code points, such as uppercase letter, punctuation, etc. Strings_Edit.UTF8.Maps defines sets and maps of Unicode code points in a way similar to the standard library package Ada.Strings.Maps. Strings_Edit.UTF8.Maps.Constants provides some commonly used sets and maps.Image

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.
