# xontrib.coreutils

Additional core utilities that are implemented in xonsh.

The current list includes:

- cat

- echo

- pwd

- tee

- tty

- yes

In many cases, these may have a lower performance overhead than the posix command line utility with the same name. This is because these tools avoid the need for a full subprocess call. Additionally, these tools are cross-platform.
