	* ls -l now displays lnik names outside the current directory,
 | 
						|
	    Patch thanks to Eric Delaunay
 | 
						|
	* init now properly handles sparc serial consoles and does a
 | 
						|
	    better job of finding the real consol device rather than using
 | 
						|
	    /dev/console which doesn't support job control. Patch also
 | 
						|
	    thanks to Eric Delaunay.
 | 
						|
	* more started to read from stdin after the last file was finished, and 
 | 
						|
	    options were not parsed correctly (fix thanks to Eric Delaunay).
 | 
						|
	* rm wouldn't remove a symlink unless the symlink was valid.  This was
 | 
						|
	    a side effect of the busybox 0.32 recursiveAction() fix.  Things 
 | 
						|
	    should now work correctly.
 | 
						|
	* grep wouldn't grep stdin.  Now it does.
 | 
						|
	* sed wouldn't sed stdin.  Now it does.
 | 
						|
	* sed was appending a \n to the end of lines with replacements.
 | 
						|
	    Now it doesn't do that.
 | 
						|
	* ls -l now bypasses libc6 nss when displaying user/group names.
 | 
						|
	    Now uses my_getpwuid and my_getgrgid.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
0.33
 | 
						|
	* Fixed a bug where init could hang instead of rebooting.
 | 
						|
	* Removed some debugging noise from init.c
 | 
						|
	* Fixed ln so it works now (it was very broken).
 | 
						|
	* Fixed df so it won't segfault when there is no /etc/fstab,
 | 
						|
	* If BB_MTAB is not defined, df and mount will whine if /etc/fstab
 | 
						|
	    is not installed (since they cannot fixup "/dev/root" to 
 | 
						|
	    state the real root device name)
 | 
						|
	* merged some redundant code from mtab.c/df.c into utility.c
 |

0.32
 | 
						|
	* More changes -- many thanks to Lineo for paying me to work on
 | 
						|
	    busybox.  If you have any problems please let me know ASAP
 | 
						|
	    at andersen@lineo.com or andersee@debian.org
 | 
						|
	* usage() now prints the BusyBox version.  This will help folks
 | 
						|
	    realize that they are not in Kansas anymore.
 | 
						|
	* Fixed mkdir -m option so that it works.
 | 
						|
	* kill segfaulted w/o any arguments.  Now it doesn't do that.
 | 
						|
	* kill wasn't properly accepting signal names.  It does now.
 | 
						|
	* Added new apps chvt and deallocvt (I should probably add open)
 | 
						|
	* Major rewrite of init.c.  Code is now readable by mere mortals IMHO.
 | 
						|
	* Wrote sed -- weighs only 1.8k (5.8k with full regular expressions!).
 | 
						|
	* Fixed a stupid seg-fault in sync
 | 
						|
	* Fixed mount -- mount -a failed to parse and apply mount options
 | 
						|
	* Fixed umount -n (patch thanks to Matthew Grant <grantma@anathoth.gen.nz>)
 | 
						|
	* umount -a no longer umounts /proc
 | 
						|
	* Added BB_MTAB, allowing (at the cost of ~1.5k and the need for a rw /etc)
 | 
						|
	    folks to use a real /etc/mtab file instead of a symlink to /proc/mounts.
 | 
						|
	    mount, and umount will add/remove entries and df will now use /etc/mtab 
 | 
						|
	    if BB_MTAB is defined. 
 | 
						|
	* Fixed a nice bug in recursiveAction() which caused it to infinitely
 | 
						|
	    hunt through /proc/../fd/* creating new file descriptors if it
 | 
						|
	    followed the /dev/fd link over to /proc.  recursiveAction() now 
 | 
						|
	    lstat's the file when followLinks==FALSE so it won't follow links 
 | 
						|
	    as the name suggests.  Fix thanks to Matt Porter <porter@debian.org>.

0.31
 | 
						|
	* I added a changelog for version 0.30. 
 | 
						|
	* adjusted find internals to make it smaller, and removed 
 | 
						|
	    some redundancy.
 | 
						|
	* Fixed a segfault in ps when /etc/passwd or /etc/group 
 | 
						|
	    are absent.  Now will warn you and carry on.
 | 
						|
	* Added in optional _real_ regular expression support (to be
 | 
						|
	    the basis for a future sed utility).  When compiled in
 | 
						|
	    it adds 3.9k, but makes grep much more capable.
 | 
						|
	* Checked out using nftw(3) for recursive stuff, but unfortunatly
 | 
						|
	    it wasn't supported before GNU libc 2.1, and some folks use
 | 
						|
	    glibc 2.0.7 since it is much smaller than that latest and greatest.

0.30
 | 
						|
	Major changes -- lots of stuff rewritten. Many thanks to Lineo for
 | 
						|
	paying me to make these updates. If you have any problems with busybox, 
 | 
						|
	or notice any bugs -- please let me know so I can fix it.  These 
 | 
						|
	changes include:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	Core Changes:
 | 
						|
	    * busybox can now invoke apps in two ways: via symlinks to the
 | 
						|
		busybox binary, and as 'busybox [function] [arguments]...'
 | 
						|
	    * When invoked as busybox, the list of currently compiled in 
 | 
						|
		functions is printed out (no this is not bloat -- the list
 | 
						|
		has to be there anyway to map invocation name to function).
 | 
						|
	    * busybox no longer parses command lines for apps or displays their
 | 
						|
		usage info.  Each app gets to handle (or not handle) this for
 | 
						|
		itself.
 | 
						|
	    * Eliminated monadic, dyadic, descend, block_device, and 
 | 
						|
		postprocess.  It was cumbersome to have so many programs
 | 
						|
		cobbled together in this way.  Without them, the app is much
 | 
						|
		more granular.
 | 
						|
	    * All shared code now lives in utility.c, and is properly
 | 
						|
		ifdef'ed to be only included for those apps requiring it.
 | 
						|
	    * Eliminated struct FileInfo (the basis of monadic, dyadic, etc)
 | 
						|
		so now each app has the function prototype of (da-dum):
 | 
						|
		    extern int foo_main(int argc, char** argv);
 | 
						|
		which speeds integration of new apps.
 | 
						|
	    * Adjusted the Makefile to make it easier to 
 | 
						|
		{en|dis}able debugging.
 | 
						|
	    * Changed default compiler optimization to -Os 
 | 
						|
		(optimize for smaller binaries).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	App Changes:
 | 
						|
	    * To cope with the new app function prototype and the removal of
 | 
						|
		monadic, dyadic, etc, the following apps were re-written:
 | 
						|
		    * cat - Works same as always.
 | 
						|
		    * chgrp, chmod, chown - rewrite.  Combined into a single 
 | 
						|
			source file.  Absorbed patches from Enrique Zanardi <ezanard@debian.org>
 | 
						|
			that removes the dependency on libc6 libnss* libraries.
 | 
						|
		    * cp - Can now do 'cp -a' can can copy devices,
 | 
						|
			pipes, symlinks, as well as recursive or non-recursive dir copies.
 | 
						|
		    * fdflush - adjusted to remove dependancy on struct FileInfo.
 | 
						|
		    * find - Now includes some basic regexp matching 
 | 
						|
			which will be the basic of a future mini-sed.
 | 
						|
		    * ln - Same functionality.
 | 
						|
		    * mkdir - Added -p flag to feature set.
 | 
						|
		    * mv - rewrite.
 | 
						|
		    * rm - Added -f flag to feature set.
 | 
						|
		    * rmdir - Same functionality.
 | 
						|
		    * swapon, swapoff - Combined into a single binary. No longer
 | 
						|
			uses /etc/swaps.  swap{on|off} -a uses /etc/fstab instead.
 | 
						|
		    * touch - Same functionality.
 | 
						|
	    * date - adjusted with a patch from Matthew Grant <grantma@anathoth.gen.nz>
 | 
						|
		to accomodate glibc timezone support.  I then ripped out GNU getopt.
 | 
						|
	    * mkswap -- new version merged from util-linux.  Can now make >128Meg swaps.
 | 
						|
	    * Replaced the old and star, unstar, and tarcat with the tar 
 | 
						|
		implementation from sash.   Now tar behaves as god intended
 | 
						|
		it to (i.e. tar -xvf <file> and tar -cf <file> <dir> work).
 | 
						|
	    * dd -- rewritten.  Can with with files, stdin, stdout.
 | 
						|
	    * Added the following new apps:
 | 
						|
		    * loadfont -- added from debian boot floppies 
 | 
						|
		    * chroot -- added based on a patch from Paolo Molaro <lupus@lettere.unipd.it> 
 | 
						|
		    * grep -- I just wrote it.  Only matches simple strings
 | 
						|
		    * ps -- I just wrote it.  Has _no_ options at all, but works.
 | 
						|
		    * fsck_minix, mkfs_minix -- added from util-linux, but I ripped out
 | 
						|
			internationalization and such to make them smaller.
 | 
						|
		    * sfdisk -- Added from util-linux (minus internationalization and such).
 | 
						|
	    * Probably some other changes that I forgot to document...
