gnucore

A collection of GNU core utilities and custom binaries reimplemented in C for Windows

Why?

I've coded this project to better understand C and embedded development. I haven't optimised coreutils; I've only added my preferences to the binaries (e.g adding a / to directory prints).

How To Use

All binaries are compiled in bin/. Simply type Edit Environmental Variables -> Path -> New -> /path/to/this/directory/bin

My Custom Binaries

Some binaries I've coded that do not exist in coreutils that I think should:

• cnt - gets the number of lines in a file, or number of files/directories in a directory:

$ ./cnt
5 files (0 hidden) - 0 directories (1 hidden)

$ ./cnt cnt.c
131 cnt.c

$ ./cnt src LICENSE
src:
4 files (0 hidden) - 0 directories (1 hidden)
