Decoded: GNU Coreutils (2018)

I used this site to help implement some core utils in TypeScript for Deno. They never had all the features, but it helped understand the code paths, etc.

I frequently "info coreutils". I poke around and almost always learn something new or refresh something that had faded. Sort of a playground for me...

That sounds interesting. Do you have it up on github or somewhere?

I have learnt a lot from Maizure's blog. One of my early favorites: http://www.maizure.org/projects/printf/index.html

Oh this is awesome. One of the first things I do when I get a new mac is override the ancient BSD tools and install the gnu coreutils.
