apprecitated. Here are some that are under consideration but have not yet
been included, I also welcome feedback on which of these to include.
+_
+ Matt Taggart suggests that and(1) and not(1) be integrated into one
+ utility taking a page from test(1)/[. It would work like this:
+
+ _ file1 and file2
+ _ file1 not file2
+
+ Where any file can be "-" for stdin. Could also add "or", "xor",
+ etc to this. This makes it much clearer which file is on which side
+ of the boolean expression.
+
+ If it's called "_" that should probably be an alias for something
+ longer, such as lcombine. What exactly to call it is the unresolved
+ question -- is "_" something moreutils can justify taking for this?

mime
determines the mime type of a file using the gnome mine database
(More useful than file(1) in many cases but would add a lot of
gnome libraries to the package's dependency chain.)
-ifcfg
- find ip address etc easily without complex grepping in ifconfig
- http://edgard.dyn.fdn.fr/developpements/ifcfg.shtml
- (Tarball link 404 when last checked.)
-
z
makes another program understand compressed files
ex: z zxgv file.bmp.gz
- (Waiting for copyright from Chung-chieh Shan)
(Dare I take the "z" name?)
tmp
puts stdin into a temp file and passes it to the specified program
ex: zcat file.bmp.gz | tmp zxgv
- (Waiting for copyright from Chung-chieh Shan)
add
adds up numbers from stdin
