I marked them with a *. ascii *basename cal *cat *cleanname *cmp *date du dd diff *echo ed fmt freq getflags grep join look *ls *mkdir *mtime pwd read sed seq *sleep sort split *strings tail *tee test *touch tr troff unicode uniq
Most of these commands are trivial to implement in Go due to the fact that the standard library already implements the functionality. The only reason why they havent been implemented yet is because I havent had time to work on them. The commands I highly desire being worked on, some that can very possibly be developed over the summer, are awk, man, mosh (this will replace ssh1, ssh2 http://mosh.mit.edu/), plumb, mk, grep, sed, diff/idiff, lex, yacc (implement ability for yacc to output a parser for C instead of go.), ed, bc, acid/db, ndb, hoc, and rc. Also some other commands that would be really neat to have is all the commands that interface with webapps. For example; tinyurl, thesaurus, weather, news, dict, would all be very cool plan9 commands to implement. These are just my recommendations and any contribution to goblin will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your interest.
