It is part of the "binutils" package, which can be selected with setup.exe, and not a program in the mythical "bin/utils" subdirectory. It gets installed as /bin/strings.exe and /usr/bin/strings.exe. Follow these directions to help us help you. > Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Based on your message subject, you are running an older version of cygwin, and it is worth upgrading cygwin to 1.5.18 when you grab the binutils package. It is all done with the same setup.exe program. -- Eric Blake -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
