+## Name
+
+strings - find printable strings in files
+
+## Synopsis
+
+```**sh
+$ strings [-n NUMBER] [-p] [-t FORMAT] [PATHS...]  
+```
+
+## Description
+
+`strings` looks for printable strings in each file specified in `PATHS` and writes them to standard output. If `PATHS` is not specified, input is read from standard input.
+
+## Options
+
+* `-n NUMBER`: Specify the minimum string length (4 is default).
+* `-p`: Write the pathname for each file specified in `PATHS` to standard output.
+* `-t FORMAT`: Write each string preceded by its byte offset from the start of the file in the specified `FORMAT`, where `FORMAT` matches one of the following: `d` (decimal), `o` (octal), or `x` (hexidecimal).
+
+## Examples
+
+Display the printable strings in /bin/strings with a minimum length of 8 characters:
+
+```sh
+$ strings -n 8 /bin/strings
+```
+
+Display the printable strings in a binary file, preceded by their byte offset in hexadecimal format:
+
+```sh
+$ strings -t x ~/Videos/test.webm
+```
+
+Display the printable strings in all .txt files in the current directory, preceded by their pathname:
+
+```sh
+$ strings -p *.txt
+```
