TODO (1585B)


      1 The following list of commands is taken from the toybox roadmap[0] and
      2 has been stripped down  accordingly.  Commands that belong to ubase[1]
      3 are not listed here as well as commands that fall outside the scope of
      4 sbase such as vi and sh are also not listed here.

      7 awk
      8 bc
      9 diff
     10 patch
     11 stty

     13 If you are looking for some work to do on sbase, another option is to
     14 pick a utility from the list in the README which has missing flags or
     15 features noted.
     16 
     17 What also needs to be implemented is the capability of the tools to
     18 handle data with NUL-bytes in it.
     19 
     20 The return values of mdcheckline() in crypt.c need to be fixed (0 -> success,
     21 1 -> error).

     61 * Flags for string conversion-specifier (%s) are not supported.
     62 * Escape sequences that expand to '%' are treated as beginning of
     63   conversion specification.
     64 * An trailing '%' at the end of a format string causes a read past
     65   the end of the string.
