Hi Chu,

  I agree, strings should be consistent with the error messages that it 
generates.
There is also another problem, in that currently:

  strings -1 -2 <file>

will print all the strings of 12 bytes of more in <file> rather than, as might
reasonably be assumed, all strings of 2 bytes or more.

  I have uploaded a patch to address both these points.  Please try it out and
let me know what you think.

Cheers
  Nick
