2006-10-03getopt_ulflags -> getopt32.Denis Vlasenko
It is impossible to formulate sane ABI based on size of ulong because it can be 32-bit or 64-bit. Basically it means that you cannot portably use more that 32 option chars in one call anyway... Make it explicit.
2006-09-29Mention the new gpl@busybox.net address.Rob Landley
2006-09-20License clarification.Rob Landley
2006-09-17whitespace cleanupDenis Vlasenko
2006-09-14svn 15355 replaced "BusyBox is licensed under the GNU General Public PublicRob Landley
License" with "BusyBox is licensed under the GNU General Public License version 2 or later... (This is the same license the Linux kernel is under...)" Except that the Linux kernel isn't under GPLv2 or later, it's just under GPLv2. Now they match again.
2006-09-13Add Larry Doolittle's ntpclient, plus some formatting tweaks.Rob Landley
2006-09-06Denis Vlasenko has started to put stuff on his BusyBox home page, so index it.Rob Landley
2006-09-01Walter Harms contributed a section on scripting languages. (I trimmed itRob Landley
a bit.)
2006-08-28- it's a mistake to remove lib-specific prefixes from libraries; still the ↵Bernhard Reutner-Fischer
removal should be complete.

2006-07-31Announce 1.2.1Rob Landley
2006-07-27And now, with a for loop, so it can handle the nested USE() case.Rob Landley
2006-07-27I touched perl. I feel dirty.Rob Landley
Make autodocifier suck less. It still doesn't handle nested USE( USE() ) case (the inner USE() winds up in the output), but making it recursive involves getting perl to accept a "for" loop and it's telling me that "break" is an unrecognized bareword and I hate perl. This is at least an improvement.

2006-05-11Busybox is licensed under GPLv2 or later. Shipping another license with theRob Landley
