The goal is specifically to include tools that are more than posix-compatible coreutils, instead they reimagine the functionality and are just overall better

(the other tools aren't coreutils. I may include them as extras)

One very good reference: A project dedicated to explain the GNU coreutils. (version 8.3)

This could be also very helpful to write more tests.

@Manishearth Do you plan to do the busybox approach of providing one lib? This would reduce binary size and could reduce redundance, ie for CLI parsing etc.

At the moment I do not plan to deal with distribution at all; this repo just provides an installer.
