| Toybox: all-in-one Linux command line. |
| |
| --- Building Toybox |
| |
| Type "make help" for build instructions. |
| |
| Mostly you want: |
| |
| CFLAGS="--static" CROSS_COMPILE=armv5l- make defconfig toybox install |
| |
| Or "make menuconfig", which produces the same sort of .config file as the |
| Linux kernel. |
| |
| --- Using toybox |
| |
| The build produces a "swiss-army-knife" style multifunction binary, which acts |
| differently depending on the name it was called as (cp, mv, cat...), and |
| installs symlinks under each command name to populate $PATH. |
| |
| The "toybox" command itself uses its first argument as the command name to run |
| (ala "toybox ls -l"). With no arguments, it lists available commands. (This |
| allows you to use the commands even without the symlinks.) |
| |
| The "help" command provides information about each command (ala "help cat"). |
| |
| The toybox web page is at "http://landley.net/toybox". |
| |
| Have fun, |
