What should the Bonsai equivalent look like? Ripped straight from POSIX? Or should there be improvements / simplifications?

The POSIX man page for cut(1) looks complex but not terrible to implement as-is.

we probably should not do these options for our cut-like:

-b list   Cut based on a list of bytes. Each selected byte shall be
                 output unless the -n option is also specified. It shall not
                 be an error to select bytes not present in the input line.

       -c list   Cut based on a list of characters. Each selected character
                 shall be output. It shall not be an error to select
                 characters not present in the input line.

these seem more suited to a matching tool or finding tool like a grep-like

(-d delimiter) shouldn't be limited to one byte. cut -d " - " should be possible.

`(-d delimiter)` shouldn't be limited to one byte. `cut -d " - "` should be possible.

Rather than cut(1p), perhaps it should be fis(1) - field isolator.
