coreutils

coreutils copied to clipboard

This is to let you know that I’ve archived https://github.com/SimonSapin/rust-utf8, the source repository for https://crates.io/crates/utf-8 which https://crates.io/crates/uu_wc depends on. No action is required as I’m not planning the yank the crate, and it’s small enough that it’s possibly bug-free. However if at some point you still need changes in it, you’ll be better off copying relevant code into your own repository.

ok, merci Simon :)

I'm an experienced developer and I've been learning Rust. If there's no one else already working on this I'd like to take a stab at it.

@n0bml What would you like to change? Do you want to change wc to use a different library or do you want to incorporate the code from this crate into uutils?

@tertsdiepraam I hadn't gotten that far yet. I was thinking of incorporating the code from the create into uutils as Simon mentioned. I'm open to whatever is best for the project and have no strong feelings either way.

Alright, let's see how much code from that crate we need and try to incorporate that!

@n0bml Are you still working on this issue?

@stefins yes but some critical problems at my day job have eaten up my free time. Hopefully they'll be done soon and I can get back to this soon. If there's a need for it to be faster I'm ok with someone taking it over and I'll find another way to contribute.

Ok fine. You can work on this. Let me know in the thread if this can't be handled by you. Thanks :)
