Linux Filters

Linux Filter commands accept input data from stdin (standard input) and produce output on stdout (standard output). It transforms plain-text data into a meaningful way and can be used with pipes to perform higher operations.

These filters are very small programs that are designed for a specific function which can be used as building blocks.
