Does somebody have an equivalent to the unix "strings" program
that runs under ms-dos?

I don't know of a free copy, but I use the one that comes with 

		PC/TOOLS: UNIX Utilities for MS-DOS

Available from:
 
 		Custom Software Systems
		P.O. Box 678
		Natick, Ma.   01760
		617-653-2555

I think that I paid about $49.00 and it contains many of the UNIX standard
things.
