 lash -- the BusyBox LAme SHell (command interpreter)
 
-FIXME
+This command does not yet have proper documentation.  
+
+Use lash just as you would use any other shell.  It properly handles pipes,
+redirects, job control, can be used as the shell for scripts (#!/bin/sh), and
+has a sufficient set of builtins to do what is needed.  It does not (yet)
+support Bourne Shell syntax.  If you need things like "if-then-else", "while",
+and such, use ash or bash.  If you just need a very simple and extremely small
+shell, this will do the job.
