I ran a few tests tonight to see how well they compared and strings "-e l" worked pretty well. I'll post the results later!Security Shoggothhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15411793726236555303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2672754150485551359.post-20649402070030734242008-12-13T00:36:00.000-05:002008-12-13T00:36:00.000-05:00Hi, you asked if there was a tool for extracting Unicode strings on Linux. The good news is there is nothing to download :-). Check out the 'e' switch for strings:<BR/><BR/>-e encoding<BR/>--encoding=encoding<BR/> Select the character encoding of the strings that are to be found. Possible values for encoding are: s = single-7-bit-byte characters ( ASCII , ISO 8859, etc., default), S = single-8-bit-byte characters, b = 16-bit bigendian, l = 16-bit littleendian, B = 32-bit bigendian, L = 32-bit littleendian. Useful for finding wide character strings. <BR/><BR/>Hope this helps,<BR/><BR/>Craig<BR/>http://cloudsecurity.orgcraigbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12991215459352870885noreply@blogger.com
