+ ar is an archival utility program used to create, modify, and
+ extract contents from archives. An archive is a single file holding
+ a collection of other files in a structure that makes it possible to
+ retrieve the original individual files (called archive members).
+ The original files' contents, mode (permissions), timestamp, owner,
+ and group are preserved in the archive, and can be restored on
+ extraction.
+ On an x86 system, the ar applet adds about XXX bytes.
+
+ Unless you have a specific application which requires ar, you should
+ probably say N here.

help
- Please submit a patch to add help text for this item.
+ bunzip2 is an compression utility using the Burrows-Wheeler block
+ sorting text compression algorithm, and Huffman coding. Compression
+ is generally considerably better than that achieved by more
+ conventional LZ77/LZ78-based compressors, and approaches the
+ performance of the PPM family of statistical compressors.
+
+ The BusyBox bunzip2 applet is limited to de-compression only. On an
+ x86 system, this applet adds about XXX bytes.
+
+ Unless you have a specific application which requires bunzip2, you
+ should probably say N here.
