These are the GNU text file (actually, file contents) processing
utilities. Most of these programs have significant advantages over
their Unix counterparts, such as greater speed, additional options,
and fewer arbitrary limits. The programs that can be built with this
package are: cat, cksum, comm, csplit, cut, expand, fold, head, join,
nl, od paste, pr, sort, split, sum, tac, tail, tr, unexpand, uniq, and
wc. The cmp program has moved to the GNU diff distribution.
