Using the GNU utilities

You can install many of the Linux (read GNU) userland utilities on MINIX. Via pkgin, you can install:

• BASH shell
• GNU coreutils
• GNU awk
• GNU grep
• GNU sed
• GNU diffutils
• GNU less

The pkgin tool will install the software to /usr/pkg/bin which is already setup in your PATH by default. See the Installing Binary Packages guide for details on installing software.
