Previously these utilities were offered as three individual sets of GNU utilities, Fileutils, Shellutils, and Textutils.

The GNU Core Utilities are the basic file, shell and text manipulation
|
|
utilities of the GNU operating system.
|
|
|
|
Previously these utilities were offered as three individual sets of GNU
|
|
utilities, Fileutils, Shellutils, and Textutils. Those three have been
|
|
combined into a single set of utilities called Coreutils.

|
All the binaries are prefixed by the letter g to differentiate them with
|
|
the standard applications with the same name. The texinfo
|
|
documentation will refer to them without the 'g' prefix. `id' is
|
|
prefixed by two g (ggid) in other to avoid a conflict with gid in
|
|
id-utils.
