toybox and busybox ship their own sh's. It's extremely irresponsible,
considering that toybox is only maintained by 1 person.
One always has to keep in mind how many people can effectively work
on a project and keep track of bugs and other problems.
mksh is an excellent choice for a shell, and there are enough awk
implementations around.
Maybe I'll add an entry on
http://core.suckless.org about awk, as I
already recommend a sh there. Which one would you guys suggest?
Cheers
