Are you on linux? You might have it installed.

Try running:

  man strings
I get:

  strings - print the strings of printable characters in files. 
https://linux.die.net/man/1/strings

Basically it will print out any strings of ascii charters in a file. Which in a binary usually represent string constants or "hard coded" strings that have not been obfuscated.
