@lanodan @hfaust @sun Using ripgrep as grep in userland mostly works with the exception of -E. Using it systemwide will probably unveil many edge cases in especially in shell script monsters like autoconf who check eg the copyright header of mkdir if it supports -p.

@lanodan @hfaust @sun exa/eza is a ls replacement, not a rewrite.

Also rewritting things in bug-to-bug compatibility is no fun. Writing a tool that replaces the existing one with useful new features and at the same time being mostly memory safe and sometimes even was faster is a way more motivating combination. See ripgrep.

@fgaz @nixos @tcl@a.gup.pe @tcltk @tcl@kbin.social @tcl@lemmy.world since shell is probably the smallest common nominator between all builds systems, I don't know where the fit for this would be since we could not remove a shell anyway. Maybe it would be useful to remove Python/Rust/Perl from deep down the dependency chain if shell is just not enough.
