Looks like 6 of those 8 are in GNU coreutils as well (and therefore can be assumed present on just about any modern Unix). 'rs' and 'jot' are the two missing from most default Linux installs. On Debian you can install them via the packages 'rs' and 'athena-jot'.
- merlincorey 13y ago'jot' is pretty sweet, especially for creating ranges for iteration and random numerical data for testing arguments and such. Check out the man page for a few snippets: http://www.unix.com/man-page/FreeBSD/1/jot/ http://www.unix.com/man-page/FreeBSD/1/jot/ It is the older, more flexible uncle of gnu's 'seq' command: http://administratosphere.wordpress.com/2009/01/23/using-bsd-jot/ http://administratosphere.wordpress.com/2009/01/23/using-bsd...
