ssttrriinnggss looks for ASCII strings in  a binary file.  A ``string'' is defined
as any  sequence of four  or more printable characters.   ssttrriinnggss is useful
for  identifying  unknown object  files,  or for  looking  at the  messages
printed  by commands.   You can  also use  it as  a filter  if _f_i_l_e  is not
specified.

ssttrriinnggss recognizes the following command-line options:

-dd  Precede each string by its offset in the file in decimal.

-oo  Precede each string by its offset in the file in octal.

-pp  Strip  the  parity  bits of  all  characters  in  the  string prior  to
    comparison.

-xx  Precede each string by its offset in the file in hexadecimal.

Finally, the  option -_l_e_n_g_t_h  forces ssttrriinnggss to  use _l_e_n_g_t_h as  the minimum
length for a printable string.
