GNU Coreutils package includes all of the basic command-line tools that are expected in a POSIX system, excluding shell. This package is the union of the GNU fileutils, sh-utils, and textutils packages. Most of these tools offer extended functionality beyond that which is outlined in the POSIX standard.

This package provides a standalone shared library version of BFD, which is otherwise distributed and installed as part of the Binutils package release.

GNU Diffutils is a package containing tools for finding the differences between files. The "diff" command is used to show how two files differ, while "cmp" shows the offsets and line numbers where they differ. "diff3" allows you to compare three files. Finally, "sdiff" offers an interactive means to merge two files.

libiconv provides an implementation of the iconv function for systems that lack it. iconv is used to convert between character encodings in a program. It supports a wide variety of different encodings.

Patch is a program that applies changes to files based on differences laid out as by the program "diff". The changes may be applied to one or more files depending on the contents of the diff file. It accepts several different diff formats. It may also be used to revert previously applied differences.

Any Unix-like operating system needs a C library: the library which defines the "system calls" and other basic facilities such as open, malloc, printf, exit...

The GNU C library is used as the C library in the GNU system and most systems with the Linux kernel.

Sed is a non-interactive, text stream editor. It receives a text input from a file or from standard input and it then applies a series of text editing commands to the stream and prints its output to standard output. It is often used for substituting text patterns in a stream. The GNU implementation offers several extensions over the standard utility.

Findutils supplies the basic file directory searching utilities of the GNU system. It consists of two primary searching utilities: "find" recursively searches for files in a directory according to given criteria and "locate" lists files in a database that match a query. Two auxiliary tools are included: "updatedb" updates the file name database and "xargs" may be used to apply commands with arbitrarily long arguments.

This package provides all the locales supported by the GNU C Library, more than 400 in total. To use them set the LOCPATH environment variable to the share/locale sub-directory of this package.

Bash Line Editor (ble.sh) is a command line editor written in pure Bash which replaces the default GNU Readline. It adds syntax highlighting, auto suggestions, vim modes, and more to Bash interactive sessions.

Bash is the shell, or command-line interpreter, of the GNU system. This variant logs the history to syslog.

This package provides extensions that allow Bash to provide adapted completion for many common commands.

Bats is a TAP-compliant testing framework for Bash. It provides a simple way to verify that the UNIX programs you write behave as expected. Bats is most useful when testing software written in Bash, but you can use it to test any UNIX program.

Bash-ctypes is a Bash plugin that provides a foreign function interface (FFI) directly in your shell. In other words, it allows you to call routines in shared libraries from within Bash.

Bash TAP is a TAP-compliant Test::More-style testing library for Bash shell scripts and functions. Along with the Test::More-style testing helpers it provides helper functions for mocking commands and in-process output capturing.

bash_unit allows you to write unit tests, run them and, in case of failure, display the stack trace with source file and line number indications to locate the problem.

Bash is the shell, or command-line interpreter, of the GNU system. It is compatible with the Bourne Shell, but it also integrates useful features from the Korn Shell and the C Shell and new improvements of its own. It allows command-line editing, unlimited command history, shell functions and aliases, and job control while still allowing most sh scripts to be run without modification.

Batik is a Java-based toolkit for applications or applets that want to use images in the Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) format for various purposes, such as display, generation or manipulation.

This package provides a SAC interface by the W3C. SAC is an interface for CSS parsers.

This package provides XMLGraphics constants (originally from batik).

This package provides a SVG 1.0 interface.

This package provides a SVG interface.
