This is a bulk spelling fix patch against busybox-1.00-pre10.
If anyone gets a corrupted copy (and cares), let me know and
I will make alternate arrangements.
Erik - please apply.
Authors - please check that I didn't corrupt any meaning.
Package importers - see if any of these changes should be
passed to the upstream authors.
I glossed over lots of sloppy capitalizations, missing apostrophes,
mixed American/British spellings, and German-style compound words.
What is "pretect redefined for test" in cmdedit.c?
Good luck on the 1.00 release!
- Larry
- declare applet_using as static from applets.c
- small correction to cmdedit,
previous version cleared history after Ctrl-C
- small spelling correction (by Friedrich Lobenstock)
No checking for lines that were too long.
No checking that fgets returning NULL was actually due to EOF.
Various whitespace handling inconsistencies.
Bloat (switches and multiple identical function calls).
Failure to check for trailing characters in some cases.
Dynamicly allocated memory was not free()d on error.
Given that this controls suid/sgid behavior, the sloppy coding was
really inexcusable. :-(
1) tinylogin like with compile time selection and a chown root.root
2) Runtime configurable via /etc/busybox.conf (docu is in the works)
[Parts of this patch may overlap with my other two patches]
the busybox development tree. This eliminates the use of recursive make, and
once again allows us to run 'make' in a subdirectory with the expected result.
And things are now much faster too. Greatly improved IMHO...

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
Kimdon <dwhedon@gordian.com> on october 7th -- the day I was fired from
Lineo. So it seems I totally forgot about this patch until now.
Sorry about that David!
This code could be improvemed by
1) supporting more options,
2) Creating a shared crc table with gunzip, or perhaps generated on the fly.
3) Removing any remaining unneccessary code (e.g. if (noisy))
There is some optimization that can be done to better use libbb in
these applets. There is also redundancy between stty and getty which
could be eliminated.
