                     12: ssttrriinnggss looks  for ASCII strings in a  binary file.  A ``string''
                     13: is defined as any  sequence of four or more printable characters.
                     14: ssttrriinnggss is  useful for identifying  unknown object files,  or for
                     15: looking at the messages printed by commands.  You can also use it
                     16: as a filter if _f_i_l_e is not specified.

                     22: -oo  Precede each string by its offset in the file in octal.

                     29: Finally, the  option -_l_e_n_g_t_h forces ssttrriinnggss to  use _l_e_n_g_t_h as the
