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.
