-For each \fIfile\fR given, \s-1GNU\s0 \fBstrings\fR prints the printable
-character sequences that are at least 4 characters long (or the number
-given with the options below) and are followed by an unprintable
-character. By default, it only prints the strings from the initialized
-and loaded sections of object files; for other types of files, it prints
-the strings from the whole file.
-.PP

-long, instead of the default 4.
-.IP "\fB\-o\fR" 4
-.IX Item "-o"
-Like \fB\-t o\fR. Some other versions of \fBstrings\fR have \fB\-o\fR

-.PD 0
-.IP "\fB\-\-radix=\fR\fIradix\fR" 4
-.IX Item "--radix=radix"

-Print the offset within the file before each string. The single

-octal, \fBx\fR for hexadecimal, or \fBd\fR for decimal.

-.IP "\fB\-\-encoding=\fR\fIencoding\fR" 4

-.PD
-Select the character encoding of the strings that are to be found.
-Possible values for \fIencoding\fR are: \fBs\fR = single\-7\-bit\-byte
-characters (\s-1ASCII\s0, \s-1ISO\s0 8859, etc., default), \fBS\fR =
-single\-8\-bit\-byte characters, \fBb\fR = 16\-bit bigendian, \fBl\fR =
-16\-bit littleendian, \fBB\fR = 32\-bit bigendian, \fBL\fR = 32\-bit
-littleendian. Useful for finding wide character strings. (\fBl\fR

-Read command-line options from \fIfile\fR. The options read are
-inserted in place of the original @\fIfile\fR option. If \fIfile\fR
-does not exist, or cannot be read, then the option will be treated
-literally, and not removed.
-.Sp
-Options in \fIfile\fR are separated by whitespace. A whitespace
-character may be included in an option by surrounding the entire
-option in either single or double quotes. Any character (including a
-backslash) may be included by prefixing the character to be included
-with a backslash. The \fIfile\fR may itself contain additional
-@\fIfile\fR options; any such options will be processed recursively.
