+BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a
+single small executable.
+
+It provides replacements for most of the utilities you usually find in
+GNU fileutils, shellutils, etc. The utilities in BusyBox generally have
+fewer options than their full-featured GNU cousins; however, the
+options that are included provide the expected functionality and behave
+very much like their GNU counterparts. BusyBox provides a fairly
+complete environment for any small or embedded system.
