To whom it may concern.

Greetings,

I do not know whether you guy's are the right person or not...but if you 
are, can you help me out...here below i got a program call "strings.c" which 
my boss told me that he got it quite a while ago from "freebsd"...i tried to 
compile this code... unfortunately, this is giving me an error...looks like 
either downloading was not correct or some of the needed file to run this 
program are missing...anyway, can you solve this problem and let me know 
whether i am looking at the right "strings.c" source codes or you have the 
latest version of this codes or during download we might lost some of the 
needed header file or we need to download correct version with the correct 
header file....

...anyway, i will really appreciate if you can help me out 
asap...incidentally, if you can let me know any of its documentation or what 
it does in detail, will be a great help...here below i am attaching the 
"strings.c" file.

thanks
