This is now consistent with ubase. The advantage is that it can be generated very easily with: for i in $(./sbase-box); do echo $i; done
sbase - suckless unix tools =========================== sbase is a collection of unix tools that are inherently portable across UNIX and UNIX-like systems. The following programs are currently implemented: basename cal cat chgrp chmod chown chroot cksum cmp cols comm cp cut date dirname du echo env expand false fold grep head hostname kill ln ls md5sum mkdir mkfifo mktemp mv nice nl nohup paste printenv pwd readlink renice rm rmdir sleep setsid sort split sponge strings sync tail tar tee test touch tr true tty uudecode uuencode uname unexpand uniq unlink seq sha1sum sha256sum sha512sum wc xargs yes sbase is mostly following POSIX but we deviate wherever we think it is appropriate. The complement of sbase is ubase[1] which is Linux-specific and provides all the non-portable tools. Together they are intended to form a base system similar to busybox but much smaller and suckless. Building -------- To build sbase, simply type make. You may have to fiddle with config.mk depending on your system. You can also build sbase-box, which generates a single binary containing all the required tools. You can then symlink the individual tools to sbase-box. Ideally you will want to statically link sbase. If you are on Linux we recommend using musl-libc[2]. Portability ----------- sbase has been compiled on a variety of different operating systems, including Linux, *BSD, OSX, Haiku, Solaris, SCO OpenServer and others. sbase also compiles and runs on minix3 with slight modifications. They do not provide mmap()/munmap() so you need to use minix_mmap() and minix_munmap() respectively. Various combinations of operating systems and architectures have also been built. You can build sbase with gcc, clang, tcc, nwcc and pcc. [1] http://git.suckless.org/ubase/ [2] http://www.musl-libc.org/
