lookutils is a "neater" minimal GNU coreutils replacement.

lookutils is a complete rewrite of all* GNU coreutils, written in a cleaner and more readable way. Each utility is implemented independently with a focus on simplicity, clarity, and maintainability. The core functionality of these tools is preserved while their source code is made clearer, better organized, and easier to maintain. Some utilities may not behave exactly like their GNU coreutils equivalents or support every advanced option, but these differences are intentional. The result is a practical and understandable alternative without unnecessary complexity.

The purpose of the lookutils project is to keep the source code cleaner and more readable. There will be some shortcomings in this replacement, this is not a glitch, it is something we did completely on purpose for example, we did not add 'lbracket', 'arch', 'dir', 'vdir' because these types of utilities are already "alias".
