Description

Toybox (Linux Command Line Utilities) is a collection of Linux command line utility programs, written by Toybox developers, for use in Linux-based operating systems, such as Android and Ubuntu. It is designed to replace the BusyBox utility suite, which is often used in embedded Linux-based systems. Toybox includes a variety of programs, such as ls, cp, mv, echo, and more. It also includes many other command line utilities, such as grep, sed, awk, and diff. Toybox has been designed to be easy to install and use, and has been optimized for modern processors. It is also designed to be very portable, with support for multiple architectures. Toybox also features many features that are not found in BusyBox, such as support for long options and colorized output. Toybox is an ideal choice for developers looking for a lightweight, powerful command line interface for their Linux-based system.
