The easiest was is probably to learn by example, by downloading the
source code to an existing implementation and studying that.

I'm marking this as not a bug; the coreutils <at> gnu.org list is better
suited for general programming questions not related to a specific bug
in an existing coreutils.  As it is, you might get a better answer by
telling us more about what application you are trying to write and why
none of the existing implementations do what you need to cause you to
want to write a new application.
