ubase - suckless linux base utils
=================================

ubase is  a collection of  tools similar  in spirit to  util-linux but
much simpler.

The following programs are currently implemented:

chvt
clear
ctrlaltdel
dd
df
dmesg
eject
fallocate
free
freeramdisk
fsfreeze
getty
halt
hwclock
id
insmod
killall5
login
lsmod
lsusb
mesg
mknod
mkswap
mount
mountpoint
pagesize
passwd
pidof
pivot_root
ps
readahead
respawn
rmmod
stat
su
swapoff
swapon
switch_root
sysctl
truncate
umount
unshare
uptime
watch
who

The complement  of ubase  is sbase[1] which  mostly follows  POSIX and
provides all the portable tools.  Together they are intended to form a
base system similar to busybox but much smaller and suckless.

Building
--------

To  build ubase,  simply  type  make.  You  may  have  to fiddle  with
config.mk and config.h depending on your system.

You  can  also  build  ubase-box,  which  generates  a  single  binary
containing  all  the  required  tools.    You  can  then  symlink  the
individual tools to ubase-box or run them directly as follows:

  ubase-box cmd [args]

Ideally you will  want to statically link ubase.   We highly recommend
using musl-libc[2].

ubase is known to compile with gcc, clang and tcc.
