=head1 NAME
busybox - I am BusyBox of Borg. Unix will be assimilated.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
busybox <function> [arguments...] # or
<function> [arguments...] # if symlinked
=head1 DESCRIPTION
BusyBox is a multi-call binary that combines many common Unix utilities into a
single executable. Most people will create a symlink to busybox for each
function name, and BusyBox will act like whatever you invoke it as.
BusyBox has been written with size-optimization in mind. It is very easy to
include or exclude the commands you want installed. BusyBox tries to make
itself useful to small systems with limited resources.
=head1 COMMANDS
Currently defined functions:
busybox, cat, chmod, chown, chgrp, chroot, clear, chvt, cp, date,
dd, df, dmesg, du, fbset, find, free, deallocvt, fsck.minix, mkfs.minix,
grep, head, hostname, init, linuxrc, kill, ln, ls, lsmod, mkdir,
mknod, mkswap, more, mount, mv, ping, poweroff, ps, pwd, reboot,
rm, rmdir, sed, sleep, sort, sync, syslogd, swapon, swapoff, tail,
tar, tee, touch, true, false, uname, umount, uniq, update, zcat,
gunzip, gzip
Oh yes. Unix will be mine.
