Bugs

       The program can be fooled by any file with more than 1024 bytes between the MZ header and the PE header.

Description

       Miss  Identify  looks  at  the  header of every file it processes and determines if it is a PE executable
       (Windows executable). Such files can include programs, device drivers, and DLLs. By default  the  program
       displays  the filename if the extension of the file does not match one of the known executable extensions
       (.exe, .com, .sys, or .dll). Other options can make the program display the filename  of  all  executable
       files.

       -r     Enables  recursive  mode. All subdirectories are traversed. Please note that recursive mode cannot
              be used to examine all files of a given file extension. For example, calling missidentify -r *.txt
              will examine all files in directories that end in .txt.

       -q     Silent mode. All error messages except fatal errors are surppressed.

       -a     Display filenames of all executables

       -b     Enables bare mode. Strips any leading directory information from displayed filenames.   This  flag
              may not be used in conjunction with the -l flag.

       -l     Enables  relative  file  paths.  Instead of printing the absolute path for each file, displays the
              relative file path as indicated on the command line.  This flag may not  be  used  in  conjunction
              with the -b flag.

       -v     Verbose mode. Displays the name of every 10th file as a progress indicator.

       -s-Slen
              Prints  strings  of  length  len  with  each filename. With lowercase letter, puts filename before
              string. With uppercase letter, puts strings before filename.

       -h     Show a help screen and exit.

       -V     Show the version number and exit.
