I'm publishing a book doing exactly this, rewriting one Unix utility per chapter from the BSD C version into Rust. The first two chapters for true/false and yes are published, with head, wc, cat, cut, rev, and uniq coming soon as I finish editing and typesetting each. https://rftgu.rs/

Added to my to-check-out list! Thank you for providing such a robust sample to download (it looks like a whole chapter); that's a really nice touch.
