The latest busybox tar has options for --lzma and -a (autodetect),
but you could just use a pipe for other cases. It also has an lzma
applet and support for df -B
Not sure what features you need from pgrep, but the current busybox
help shows these options:
-l Show command name too
-a Show command line too
-f Match against entire command line
-n Show the newest process only
-o Show the oldest process only
-v Negate the match
-x Match whole name (not substring)
-s Match session ID (0 for current)
-P Match parent process ID
(There is also a "pidof" applet which might be useful)
