Busybox utils

Set of something like coreutils but with busybox.

Motivation is that on Synology DSM there are no some utils like less. And the idea is the following: we can bring statically linked busybox and call commands from it.

It can be used outside of Synology DSM of course. Any Linux is supported.

Supported CPU architectures:

• arm64
• x86_64

Installation

mkdir ~/opt
cd ~/opt
git clone git@github.com:andre487/busybox-utils.git
~/opt/busybox-utils/dev/setup.sh

If you want you can do setup without setup.sh script:

echo 'export PATH="$PATH:/var/services/homes/<your username>/opt/busybox-utils"' >>~/.your-rc-file
