Is there any possible (easy) way of transforming a bash loadable into a bash builtin?
The reason I am asking this is because loadables like `asort' and `stat' kick some major a$, but I am unable to use them on some platforms. For example, I have a tiny router-firewall distro which is based entirely on static binaries, so I can't have the loadables there. Another use case is cygwin, which I use a lot, and there is no possibility of loadables there either. (BTW, the naming of the `stat' loadable is unfortunate IMO, as it does things quite differently than its long-established namesake. It should be named astat, maybe, similarly to asort). Can someone think of a way of doing this? -- Pourko
