Many GNU, Linux and other utilities are useful, and obviously
[some](http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net) [effort](http://unxutils.sourceforge.net)
has been spent in the past to port them to Windows. However, those projects
are either old and abandoned, are hosted on CVS (which makes it more difficult
for new contributors to contribute to them), are written in platform-specific C, or
suffer from other issues.
are written in platform-specific C, a language considered unsafe compared to Rust, and
have other issues.
Rust provides a good, platform-agnostic way of writing systems utilities that are easy
to compile anywhere, and this is as good a way as any to try and learn it.
