Cool, thanks!

I have applied it to the busybox source tree -- with some minor formatting
changes, I've applied a copyright statement, and formatted the help to match
the rest of the apps in busybox.  Oh, and I added ar to the docs as well, and
added your name to the AUTHORS list.  Please feel free to check it out at
http://busybox.net/ (which I just brought online today :-).  anon CVS
access works just fine.  If you want to get CVS write access, just let me know.
Feel free to subscribe to the mailing list if you want to as well.

Please be gentle with the website, let me know if you see any problems (other
then the fact the it is really ugly -- I'm working on making it functional
before I make it pretty). 

 -Erik
