20 /* Usage: strings [options] file...
22 Options:
23 --all
25 - Do not scan only the initialized data section of object files.
27 --print-file-name
28 -f Print the name of the file before each string.
30 --bytes=min-len
31 -n min-len
32 -min-len Print graphic char sequences, MIN-LEN or more bytes long,
33 that are followed by a NUL or a newline. Default is 4.
35 --radix={o,x,d}
36 -t {o,x,d} Print the offset within the file before each string,
37 in octal/hex/decimal.
39 -o Like -to. (Some other implementations have -o like -to,
40 others like -td. We chose one arbitrarily.)
42 --encoding={s,S,b,l,B,L}
43 -e {s,S,b,l,B,L}
44 Select character encoding: 7-bit-character, 8-bit-character,
45 bigendian 16-bit, littleendian 16-bit, bigendian 32-bit,
46 littleendian 32-bit.
48 --target=BFDNAME
49 Specify a non-default object file format.
51 --help
52 -h Print the usage message on the standard output.
54 --version
55 -v Print the program version number.
