"They went unnoticed at Goonhilly, passed over Cape Canaveral +without a blip, and Woomera and Jodrell Bank looked straight through them. +Which was a pity, because it was exactly the sort of thing they'd been looking +for all these years."

+ +

Here's toybox 0.2.1 based +on commit 512. This +time around, there are statically linked prebuilt +binaries for various embedded targets.

+ +

It's been a busy few weeks, almost entirely due to new contributors. (I +have not quite been keeping up.)

+ +

Elie De Brauwer contributed free, uptime, swapon, swapoff, lsmod, mknod, +insmod, rmmod, and fixed a bug in basename. Andre Renaud contributed ls, ln, +realpath, and hostname. Andres Heck contributed pidof and killall. Daniel +Walter wrote kill and extended id. Timothy Elliott contributed tail and tests +for cmp. Frank Bergmann sent a warning fix. Bryce Fricke added -i to cp. +Nathan McSween pointed out an optimization. Georgi Chorbadzhiyski fixed +cross compiling to work more reliably.

+ +

(My own contribution this time around was just tightening up other people's +code, a build fix to unshare, some random bugfixes, and so on. My only new +code this time around was writing a bash replacement for the existing python +bloat-o-meter.)

+ +

Last time (the 0.2.0 release) included the first pass at an id command from +Tim Bird, env and basename from Tryn Mirell, cmp and head from Timothy Elliott, +more bugfixes from Nathan McSween and Elie De Brauwer, and Luis Felipe Strano +Moraes did a first pass at the who command plus other bugfixes and +optimizations.

+ +

(For that release I did xargs, cal, truncate, unlink, nohup, tty, wc, link, +dirname, unshare, and various infrastructure tweaks, but it took me 3 months +and those guys did their stuff in a week or so.)
