Core Utility Source Code
Where can I find the source code of core utilities, such as shred or dd?

I'm interested in customizing them, recompiling and installing them in place of the standard versions.

GNU source, requires gcc:
Coreutils - GNU core utilities

you probably want the fileutils subset.

Thanks. I went to that link. I downloaded the latest coreutils. I extracted it and found the c code in the src folder.
