IMO great idea, but it is not my decision. Ask Denys if this would be accepted. I would be really keen to see that in. >Zutils was not accepted in GNU because the names conflict with those >in gzip. Ok zcat is the name of the original gzip decompressor, but isn't that one compatible with the old behavior? Arguments and function shall be the same as zcat from gzip, but in addition it shall detect the compression format and uncompress all other known formats in the same way (known format configure able on compile). So where is the conflict in usage beside original gzip? Do they have the rights about the name "zcat"? ... name conflict is intentional here :( ... will have a look at your zutils, may be replacing my shell script with a better solution. -- Harald _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list [email protected] http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/busybox
