Something interesting happened last night that I didn't have an answer
to.  When trying to fix my NeXTstation at work, my wife said I should
have used a 'cut' command to help me out.  Now I don't want to bore
everybody with why I would want to do this, but 'cut' doesn't come with
our standard host of Unix commands.  I imagine this is probably a
difference between BSD and System V iterations.  We were curious, though,
about where one could obtain other possibly useful Unix functions that
aren't included in with the NeXT.  Thanks.
