About:
Fuc is a collection of modern, high-performance replacements for common Unix command-line tools. It prioritizes speed and efficiency by leveraging parallel processing and optimized algorithms. The project aims to provide drop-in replacements that are significantly faster than their traditional counterparts for large-scale operations.

Key Features:

Drop-in replacements for standard Unix commands
Significant performance improvements via parallelization
Modern Rust implementation for memory safety and speed
Focus on large file and directory operations

Use Cases:

Accelerating bulk file operations (copying, moving, deleting)
Processing large directories where standard tools are too slow
Modernizing legacy shell scripts with faster alternatives

Alternatives:

coreutils – Standard GNU coreutils are ubiquitous but often single-threaded and slower for massive workloads.
ripgrep – Fuc focuses on general file operations, whereas ripgrep specializes solely in recursive grep searching.
