Package: busybox
Version: 0.50
When entering the following command:
busybox
I get...
BusyBox v0.50 (2001.03.20-19:29+0000) multi-call binary
Usage: busybox [function] [arguments]...
or: [function] [arguments]...
BusyBox is a multi-call binary that combines many common Unix
utilities into a single executable. Most people will create a
link to busybox for each function they wish to use, and BusyBox
will act like whatever it was invoked as.
Currently defined functions:
busybox, cat, chgrp, chmod, chown, clear, cp, cut, date, dd, df,
dmesg, du, dutmp, false, fdflush, find, grep, gunzip, gzip, halt,
head, hostname, id, insmod, kill, killall, ln, loadkmap, logger,
ls, makedevs, md5sum, mkdir, mkfs.minix, mknod, mkswap, mktemp,
more, mount, mv, nslookup, ping, printf, rdate, renice, rm, rmdir,
rmmod, sort, stty, swapoff, swapon, sync, tail, tar, tee, touch,
tr, true, umount, uname, uniq, update, uptime, usleep, wc, which,

...but when entering...
busybox --help
...I get...
BusyBox v0.50 (2001.03.20-19:29+0000) multi-call binary
No help available.
...Hmmm....
