Hello, I've come across this site with lots of very useful command line tools. I haven't tested them yet:
STAT is a set of data manipulation and analysis programs developed by Gary Perlman while at the University of California, San Diego and at the Wang Institute of Graduate Studies. The programs are designed with the UNIX philosophy that individual programs should be designed as tools that do one task well and produce output suitable for input via pipes to other programs. Interactive use is supported in the UNIX shell which also provides a programming language for complex analyses. Functionality often built into statistical packages (e.g., graphics, sorting and other data manipulation) is not re-invented in |STAT which delegates such responsibility to standard UNIX tools.
Code:
