+ * A bug in syslogd was fixed that allowed it to potentially fork-bomb
+ your system. Anyone using 0.46 syslogd should upgrade.
+ * Renamed busybox.defs.h to the more sensible "Config.h"
+ * Improved portability between different libcs.
+ * Many apps ported to use getopt()
+ * Common handling of '--help'
+ * All usage messages centralized.
+ * Added a bunch of new commands:
+ * 'rdate' contributed by Sterling Huxley <sterling@europa.com>
+ * 'wget' contributed by Chip Rosenthal <chip@unicom.com>,
+ <crosenth@covad.com> and Covad Communications
+ * 'getopt' from "Alfred M. Szmidt" <ams@trillian.itslinux.org>
+ * dos2unix, unix2dos, reset, and unrpm.c (and lots of help
+ debugging) thanks to Kent Robotti <robotti@metconnect.com>.
+ * 'renice' command, thanks to Dave Cinege <dcinege@psychosis.com>
+ * 'xargs' (written by me)
+ * 'expr' contributed by Edward Betts <edward@debian.org>, based
+ on GNY expr
+ * lsmod now uses the query_module syscall, rather then /proc (me)
+ * syslogd can now log messages to remote hosts -- patch thanks
+ to Gyepi Sam <gyepi@praxis-sw.com>
* chroot can now call the builtin shell - Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org>
- * added 'renice' command -- thanks to Dave Cinege <dcinege@psychosis.com>
* 'make install' now creates relative symlinks, and added a new
'make install-hardlinks' target to (tada) install hardlinks.
- * syslogd can now log messages to a remote host -- patch thanks
- to Gyepi Sam <gyepi@praxis-sw.com>
* Rewrite of 'tail' to make it simpler, smaller, and more robust.
It now weighs only 2.25k (3k when full featured). The code is
cleaner too, thanks to Allen Soard <esp-software@mail.hypermart.net>
* Add optional ls file sorting, thanks to a patch from
Sterling Huxley <sterling@europa.com>
+ * Fixed chmod option parsing so things like 'chmod -r /tmp/file'
+ now work (previously it thought -r was an option). Doh!
+ * Fixed tar handling of stdin and stdout
+ * Renamed "internal.h" to the more sensible "busybox.h"
+ * Preliminary support for GNU HURD.
+ * Updated my devps and devmtab kernel patches for the latest 2.2.x
+ kernel, for those wanting to go proc-less.
+ * Tons of other bugfixes.
