+ default FEATURE_BUFFERS_USE_MALLOC
+ help
+ There are 3 ways BusyBox can handle buffer allocations:
+ - Use malloc. This costs code size for the call to xmalloc.
+ - Put them on stack. For some very small machines with limited stack
+ space, this can be deadly. For most folks, this works just fine.
+ - Put them in BSS. This works beautifully for computers with a real
+ MMU (and OS support), but wastes runtime RAM for uCLinux. This
+ behavior was the only one available for BusyBox versions 0.48 and
+ earlier.

Enable support for network names in /etc/networks. This is
a rarely used feature which allows you to use names
instead of IP/mask pairs in route command.

- This option allows utilities such as 'more' and 'top' to determine

- that display things on the screen will be especially primitive and
- will be unable to determine the current screen size, and will be
- unable to move the cursor.

+ help
+ Any character with Unicode value bigger than this is assumed
+ to be non-printable on output device. Many applets replace
+ such characters with substitution character.
+
+ The idea is that many valid printable Unicode chars
+ nevertheless are not displayed correctly. Think about
+ combining charachers, double-wide hieroglyphs, obscure
+ characters in dozens of ancient scripts...
+ Many terminals, terminal emulators, xterms etc will fail
+ to handle them correctly. Choose the smallest value
+ which suits your needs.
+
+ Typical values are:
+ 126 - ASCII only
+ 767 (0x2ff) - there are no combining chars in [0..767] range
+ (the range includes Latin 1, Latin Ext. A and B),
+ code is ~700 bytes smaller for this case.
+ 4351 (0x10ff) - there are no double-wide chars in [0..4351] range,
+ code is ~300 bytes smaller for this case.
+ 12799 (0x31ff) - nearly all non-ideographic characters are
+ available in [0..12799] range, including
+ East Asian scripts like katakana, hiragana, hangul,
+ bopomofo...
+ 0 - off, any valid printable Unicode character will be printed.

+ When enabled, busybox will use the kernel sendfile() function
+ instead of read/write loops to copy data between file descriptors
+ (for example, cp command does this a lot).
+ If sendfile() doesn't work, copying code falls back to read/write
