The FUC-ing project provides modern unix commands focused on performance:

- [`cpz`](cpz): a zippy alternative to [`cp`](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/cp.1.html)

- [`rmz`](rmz): a zippy alternative to [`rm`](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/rm.1.html)

Benchmarks are available under the [`comparisons`](comparisons) folder and a brief technical

overview is available at https://alexsaveau.dev/blog/fuc.

## Goals

1. Performance: if a reasonable improvement can be made, it will be.

2. Efficiency: when only negligible performance improvements are left, remaining efforts are

   focussed on minimizing wasted compute.

3. Usability: where applicable, the UX of existing commands is improved.

## Non-goals

- Portability: FUCs are primarily targeted at modern Linux installations. Support for other

  platforms is provided on a best-efforts basis.

- Compatibility: [coreutils](https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils) or

  its [Rust re-implementation](https://github.com/uutils/coreutils) will have the broadest and most

  stable set of options.
