| 176 | <li> <b>15 March 2001 -- BusyBox 0.50 released</b> | ||
| 177 | <br> | ||
| 178 | |||
| 179 | This release adds several new applets including ifconfig, route, pivot_root, stty, | ||
| 180 | and tftp, and also fixes tons of bugs. Tab completion in the | ||
| 181 | shell is now working very well, and the shell's environment variable | ||
| 182 | expansion was fixed. Tons of other things were fixed or made | ||
| 183 | smaller. For a fairly complete overview, see the | ||
| 184 | <a href="ftp://oss.lineo.com/busybox/Changelog">changelog</a>. | ||
| 185 | <p> | ||
| 186 | lash (the busybox shell) is still with us, fixed up a bit so it | ||
| 187 | now behaves itself quite nicely. It really is quite usable as | ||
| 188 | long as you don't expect it to provide Bourne shell grammer. | ||
| 189 | Standard things like pipes, redirects, command line editing, and | ||
| 190 | environment variable expansion work great. But we have found that | ||
| 191 | this shell, while very usable, does not provide an extensible | ||
| 192 | framework for adding in full Bourne shell behavior. So the first order of | ||
| 193 | business as we begin working on the next BusyBox release will be to merge in the new shell | ||
| 194 | currently in progress at | ||

| 200 | <br> | ||
| 201 | |||
| 202 | Several new applets, lots of bug fixes, cleanups, and many smaller | ||
| 203 | things made nicer. Several cleanups and improvements to the shell. | ||

| 207 | Special thanks go out to Matt Kraai and Larry Doolittle for all their | ||
| 208 | work on this release, and for keeping on top of things while I've been | ||

| 211 | <em>Special Note</em><br> | ||
| 212 | |||
| 213 | BusyBox 0.49 was supposed to have replaced lash, the BusyBox | ||
| 214 | shell, with a new shell that understands full Bourne shell/Posix shell grammer. | ||
| 215 | Well, that simply didn't happen in time for this release. A new | ||
| 216 | shell that will eventually replace lash is already under | ||
| 217 | construction. This new shell is being developed by Larry | ||
| 218 | Doolittle, and could use all of our help. Please see the work in | ||
| 219 | progress on <a href="http://doolittle.faludi.com/~larry/parser.html">Larry's website</a> | ||
| 220 | and help out if you can. This shell will be included in the next | ||
| 221 | release of BusyBox. | ||

| 224 | <li> <b>13 December 2000 -- BusyBox 0.48 released</b> | ||
| 225 | <br> | ||
| 226 | |||
| 227 | This release fixes lots and lots of bugs. This has had some very | ||
| 228 | rigorous testing, and looks very, very clean. The usual tar | ||
| 229 | update of course: tar no longer breaks hardlinks, tar -xzf is | ||
| 230 | optionally supported, and the LRP folks will be pleased to know | ||
| 231 | that 'tar -X' and 'tar --exclude' are both now in. Applets are | ||
| 232 | now looked up using a binary search making lash (the busybox | ||
| 233 | shell) much faster. For the new debian-installer (for Debian | ||
| 234 | woody) a .udeb can now be generated. | ||
| 235 | <p> | ||
| 236 | The curious can get a list of some of the more interesting changes by reading | ||
| 237 | the <a href="ftp://oss.lineo.com/busybox/Changelog">changelog</a>. | ||
| 238 | <p> | ||
