Very minimal last corrections: 1) busybox.c: fix warining 2) docs/: add applets for list from pwd_grp 3) usage.h: add -n option for route 4) run_parts.c: many todo fix for busybox style 5) addgroup.c: add #ifdef CONFIG_FEATURE_SHADOWPASSWDS, reduce one perror_msg 6) adduser.c: fix bug "variable i not initialize" and add #ifdef CONFIG_FEATURE_SHADOWPASSWDS

BusyBox - The Swiss Army Knife of Embedded Linux
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNTAX
|
|
|
|
BusyBox <function> [arguments...] # or
|
|
|
|
<function> [arguments...] # if symlinked
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single
|
|
small executable. It provides minimalist replacements for most of the utilities
|
|
you usually find in fileutils, shellutils, findutils, textutils, grep, gzip,
|
|
tar, etc. BusyBox provides a fairly complete POSIX environment for any small
|
|
or embedded system. The utilities in BusyBox generally have fewer options than
|
|
their full-featured GNU cousins; however, the options that are included provide
|
|
the expected functionality and behave very much like their GNU counterparts.
|
|
|
|
BusyBox has been written with size-optimization and limited resources in mind.
|
|
It is also extremely modular so you can easily include or exclude commands (or
|
|
features) at compile time. This makes it easy to customize your embedded
|
|
systems. To create a working system, just add a kernel, a shell (such as ash),
|
|
and an editor (such as elvis-tiny or ae).
|
|
|
|
=head1 USAGE
|
|
|
|
When you create a link to BusyBox for the function you wish to use, when BusyBox
|
|
is called using that link it will behave as if the command itself has been invoked.
|
|
|
|
For example, entering
|
|
|
|
ln -s ./BusyBox ls
|
|
./ls
|
|
|
|
will cause BusyBox to behave as 'ls' (if the 'ls' command has been compiled
|
|
into BusyBox).
|
|
|
|
You can also invoke BusyBox by issuing the command as an argument on the
|
|
command line. For example, entering
|
|
|
|
./BusyBox ls
|
|
|
|
will also cause BusyBox to behave as 'ls'.
|
|
|
|
=head1 COMMON OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
Most BusyBox commands support the B<-h> option to provide a
|
|
terse runtime description of their behavior.
