Hi, Santosh. Thanks for your interest in crush-tools.

All of the information about the project is at
https://code.google.com/p/crush-tools/ . The short version is that it
is a collection of stand-alone binaries that help you process textual
data more easily from the command line.

The project is more or less in maintenance mode right now. We still
make enhancements and bug fixes, but it's all user-driven. That is, we
don't have a roadmap for bigger plans for the future.

That said, we do welcome contributions to the code. There are details
on the project page about how that works. So if you start using crush
and find anything that needs fixing or improvement, feel free to send
us a patch.

Thanks,
Jeremy
