# Coretilus
**Coretilus** is a parody of GNU Coreutils — a playful collection of typo-triggered command-line tools written in Rust like https://github.com/uutils/coreutils
Whenever you mistype something like `git` → `gti` or `grep` → `grpe`, Coretilus answers instead of complaining.
Each binary is intentionally useless, funny, or just delightfully absurd.

### 🔁 What does “tilus” mean?
> **t.i.l.u.s. = tilus Is Ludicrously Useless Stuff**
A recursive acronym (because of course it is).
It reflects the project’s spirit — *ridiculously, gloriously pointless utilities.*
### 🧩 Included commands
| `gti` | `git` | ✅ - DONE | “Start your engine!” before committing. |
| `sl` | `ls` | ✅ - DONE | The legendary Steam Locomotive. |
| `mr` | `rm` | 🕓 - PLANNED | Land the rocket without crashing it. |
| `pc` | `cp` | 🕓 - PLANNED | Copy file from Floppy to IDE using a 486 CPU. |
| `grpe` | `grep` | 🕓 - PLANNED | Searches nothing and finds everything. |

| ...yuor | own ideas | 🕓 - PLANNED | Open an issue or a PR. |

### 🦀 Why Rust?
Because rewriting useless things in Rust is the most useful way to learn it.
Each mini-utility is a chance to explore a different Rust concept — CLI parsing, ANSI art, async, etc.
