Bzip2 crate switches from C to 100% rust

1. coreutils

   1 153 23,591 10.0 Rust

   Cross-platform Rust rewrite of the GNU coreutils

   

   I think that is the goal of uutils.

3. c2rust

   2 57 4,721 9.9 Rust

   Migrate C code to Rust

   

   If you're going to use tools to transpile, don't use something that hallucinates. You want it to be precise.

   https://github.com/immunant/c2rust reportedly works pretty well. Blog post from a few years ago of them transpiling quake3 to rust: https://immunant.com/blog/2020/01/quake3/. The rust produced ain't pretty, but you can then start cleaning it up and making it more "rusty"

4. zig

   3 986 43,066 10.0 Zig

   Moved to Codeberg

   

   This list's Zig as an entry, despite the Zig project having very clear plans[0] for a 1.0 release. That's not 0ver, it's just the beta stage of semver.

5. sd

   4 41 7,186 5.6 Rust

   Intuitive find & replace CLI (sed alternative)

   

   There is sd, not a drop in replacement though.

6. ripgrep

   5 395 65,004 8.9 Rust

   ripgrep recursively searches directories for a regex pattern while respecting your gitignore

   

   I didn't call ripgrep a replacement. Other people do. Because it does actually replace their usage of grep.

7. libbzip2-rs

   6 1 72 9.5 Rust

   An implementation of bzip2 in pure rust

   

   I briefly looked a this and there's already cargo-c configuration, which is good, but it's currently namespaced differently, so it won't get automatically detected by C programs as `libbz2`:

   https://github.com/trifectatechfoundation/libbzip2-rs/blob/8...

   I'm not familiar enough with the symbols of bzip2 to say anything about ABI compatibility.

   I have a toy project to explore things like that, but it's difficult to set aside the amount of time needed to maintain an implementation of the GNU operating system. I would welcome pull requests though:

   7 1 4 8.1 Shell

   Work in progress, experimental userspace operating system
