About busybox
English (USA)

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 emdedded system. The utilities in BusyBox generally have fewer options then their full featured GNU cousins; however, the options that are included provide the expected functionality and behave very much like their GNU counterparts.
