moreutils-0.40-1.fc14.i686.rpm

This is a collection of the unix tools that nobody thought to write
long ago, when unix was young. Currently it consists of these tools:

combine
	combine the lines in two files using boolean operations
ifdata
	get network interface info without parsing ifconfig output
isutf8
	check if a file or standard input is utf-8
ifne
        run a command if the standard input is not empty
lckdo
	execute a program with a lock held (deprecated)
mispipe
	pipe two commands, returning the exit status of the first
parallel
	run multiple jobs at once
pee
	tee standard input to pipes
sponge
	soak up standard input and write to a file
ts
	timestamp standard input
vidir
	edit a directory in your text editor
vipe
	insert a text editor into a pipe
zrun
	automatically uncompress arguments to command

Its web page is here: http://kitenet.net/~joey/code/moreutils.html

Your suggestions of additional tools to add to this collection are
appreciated. The web page lists some that are under consideration but
have not yet been included, I also welcome feedback on which of these to
include.
