The littleutils are a collection of small but useful programs. These programs include a duplicate file finder (repeats), image optimizers (opt-jpg, opt-png, opt-gif, and recomp-jpg), file renaming utilities (lowercase and uppercase), archive recompressors (to-bzip, to-7zip, and to-lzma), a tempfile utility (tempname), text file cleanup utilities (notabs, notrails, and lreplace), some low-level file query utilities (filesize, filedate, filemode, and filenode), plus others. Web site administrators will find the image optimizers particularly useful, while script writers will find some of the lower-level utilities more useful.

Changes:
An issue where the pngstrip utility (and the opt-png script that called it) would sometimes delete the transparency chunk even without the -a option was fixed along with a problem where the -t option in filedate didn't actually create output that was compatible with the -t option of touch. The memchurn utility was removed entirely as memtest86 or memtest86+ should be used instead. Portability of the to-7zip script in the "extra" subdirectory was improved.
