[super-suser@xxxxxxxxxx (Jon Pennington)]

Here's another fun one;

I have a directory, /usr/src/application-0.98, which now has binary files in
it.  I d/l'ed it, untar'ed it, built it, and now I want to strip all of the
bins in it.  I understand that I can use grep to list all of the files that
are labeled executable and pass that list on to strip.  What's the syntax?
:)

Also, is it possible/practical to strip libraries?  If so, how do I `ls
|grep' /usr/lib to sort out the symlinks from the real things?
