This project attempts to clone the utilities in the GNU Coreutils.
The motivation for this project is very simply for learning rust. The coreutils are relatively simple tools, but sophisticated enough that they present some interesting programming challenges.
If you're familiar with Unix-like systems, then implementing the coreutils seems like a great way to learn a new systems language.
