Would my utility simexec(1), which simulates program execution with a given argv, be useful as a part of Bonsai?

Usage: simexec [file] (command (arguments...))

This is useful for testing multi-program binaries and other things.

maybe not as a coreutil, but we could always use more tools in general under the bonsai name. what do you think about a set of tools specifically for testing à la GNU findutils?

(I know findutils contains some coreutils, but the same principle would be in effect)

bonsai/bonuspack would be fun. Or bonsai/leaves maybe.

`bonsai/bonuspack` would be fun. Or `bonsai/leaves` maybe.

im thinking the collection of software should have a straightforward name, but then we can have fun with the tool names. buildutils comes to mind
