[Bug 1257122] [NEW] Option to show whitespaces between textblocks

[Sworddragon]

Public bug reported:

I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 dev with binutils 2.23.91.20131123-1ubuntu1. For
example if I'm searching my disk with strings all textfiles will be
shown without newlines because they are no printable characters. In this
case it would be useful to have an option that shows all non-printable
text-chacacters only if they are between printable characters.
