            1 ubase - suckless linux base utils
            2 =================================
            3 
            4 ubase is  a collection of  tools similar  in spirit to  util-linux but
            5 much simpler.
            6 
            7 The complement  of ubase  is sbase[1] which  mostly follows  POSIX and
            8 provides all the portable tools.  Together they are intended to form a
            9 base system similar to busybox but much smaller and suckless.
           10 
           11 Building
           12 --------
           13 
           14 To  build ubase,  simply  type  make.  You  may  have  to fiddle  with
           15 config.mk and config.h depending on your system.
           16 
           17 You  can  also  build  ubase-box,  which  generates  a  single  binary
           18 containing  all  the  required  tools.    You  can  then  symlink  the
           19 individual tools to ubase-box or run: make ubase-box-install.
           20 
           21 To run the tools for ubase-box directly use: ubase-box cmd [args]
           22 
           23 Ideally you will  want to statically link ubase.   We highly recommend
           24 using musl-libc[2].
           25 
           26 ubase is known to compile with gcc, clang and tcc.
