These libraries aoutlibs: can be found in /usr/i386-slackware-linux-gnuaout/lib. aoutlibs: aoutlibs: Adds crt0.o, libvga.so.1.2.9, libdb.so.1.85.1, libc.so.4.7.6, aoutlibs: libcurses.so.0.1.2, libm.so.4.6.27. aoutlibs: aoutlibs: aoutlibs: bash: GNU bash-2.04 bash: bash: The GNU Bourne-Again SHell. Bash is a sh-compatible command bash: interpreter that executes commands read from the standard input or bash: from a file. Bash also incorporates useful features from the Korn bash: and C shells (ksh and csh). Bash is ultimately intended to be a bash: conformant implementation of the IEEE Posix Shell and Tools bash: specification (IEEE Working Group 1003.2). bash: bash: Bash must be present for the system to boot properly. bash: bash1: GNU bash-1.14.7 bash1: bash1: The GNU Bourne-Again SHell. Bash is a sh-compatible command language bash1: interpreter that executes commands read from the standard input or bash1: from a file. Bash also incorporates useful features from the Korn bash1: and C shells (ksh and csh). Bash is ultimately intended to be a bash1: conformant implementation of the IEEE Posix Shell and Tools bash1: specification (IEEE Working Group 1003.2). bash1: bash1: Some older scripts may need /bin/bash1 instead of /bin/bash. bash1: bzip2: bzip2 version 1.0.0 (a block-sorting file compressor) bzip2: bzip2: Bzip2 compresses files using the Burrows-Wheeler block sorting text bzip2: compression algorithm, and Huffman coding. Compression is generally bzip2: considerably better than that achieved by more conventional bzip2: LZ77/LZ78-based compressors, and approaches the performance of the PPM bzip2: family of statistical compressors. bzip2: bzip2: Julian Seward is the author of bzip2. bzip2: bzip2: cpio: The GNU cpio backup and archiving utility v. 2.4.2 cpio: cpio: This is GNU cpio, a program to manage archives of files. This package cpio: also includes mt, a tape drive control program. cpio copies files into cpio: or out of a cpio or tar archive, which is a file that contains other cpio: files plus information about them, such as their pathname, owner, cpio: timestamps, and access permissions. The archive can be another file on cpio: the disk, a magnetic tape, or a pipe. cpio: cpio: cpio: devs: Device files devs: devs: This package creates special files in the /dev directory that devs: represent your system's hardware. devs: devs: devs: devs: devs: devs: devs: find: GNU findutils-4.1 find: find: This package contains the GNU find, xargs, and locate programs. find: find and xargs comply with POSIX 1003.2. They also support some find: additional options, some borrowed from Unix and some unique to GNU. find: find: find: find: find: find:
