Everything I Googled/read suggests that strings.exe comes from the binutils package. The problem is that neither of the available versions of binutils seem to actually contain strings.exe. It's not in /usr/bin; find can't turn it up under /usr at all. There's even this: $ cygcheck -p strings.exe Found 19 matches for strings.exe x86/binutils/binutils-2.24.51-2 x86/binutils/binutils-2.24.51-3 And if I go to https://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-cat.cgi?file=x86%2Fbinutils%2Fbinutils-2.24.51$ this appears: 2014-05-29 02:01 709661 usr/bin/strings.exe Yet there's no strings.exe. I've even tried binutils packages from a few different mirrors. If there's no fixed binutils package available, can someone shoot me a strings.exe I can just fly into place for the time being?
